Today I travel to see my family in Canada for the U.S Thanksgiving and actually have a moment to collect my thoughts.
Many of my new colleagues are airport warriors, though rare enough for me that I delight in the solitude while being surrounded by such watchable people. I am treasuring this moment and aspire to be carving out (Thanksgiving pun for y’all) regular time to each week to share…you can hold me to this.
I am in deep admiration for those who blog nearly daily…how do you do it? Is it a gift, discipline, necessity? …oops, I digress.
Admittedly, I am not be the wild techno genius building some iPhone space station thingy… though have serious skills in listening to clients wishes and getting inspired to find a technical solution for them. I am thrilled to be surrounded by some web/tech/design wizards all sitting 5 feet away. You inspire and challenge me. Jay (@JayThornton000), Collin (@CCondray) and Brad (@BradLawless).
I remain delighted to have joined the Collective Bias (@CollectiveBias) team as the Director of Technology though I have to admit, my brain has had its butt kicked! Being in the den of innovation (called Ninja Storage by my hard core team mate Jay @JayThornton000)…the area where 4 of us hassle each other, brainstorm, whiteboard and beg for more caffeine is like being in the Amazing race for the brain and I rush in each morning for more.
I knew when I met John Andrews @Katadhin and Amy Callahan @AmyfromMars that something exciting was underfoot…but after being hired to deliver a contest site for our Genesis Today client, I felt the fire of ideas burning and when they lured me with the challenge of making their ideas clickable I fell in love…
Yes, that is what I do… I Make it Clickable!
