About me

Gender Male
Industry Marketing
Occupation Director of Research and Development
Location Norfolk, Virginia, United States
Introduction I grew up in a small paper mill town outside Portland, Maine, the youngest of three sons. We grew up with the mentality that if you work hard enough, you can make things happen. I cherish this value over any other to date. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in Marketing Management and have spent the last decade working in marketing, advertising, media, research and statistical analysis. I currently reside in southeastern Virginia with my wife, who I met at Virginia Tech, and our children (son and daughter).
