I help companies build powerful brands through the use of technology.I also help people to position themselves for life-changing opportunities by teaching them to rebrand themselves on LinkedIn and other career-oriented environments.--------Transitioning from IT to Digital Marketing & Career Advancement was one of the toughest transitions of my life.I went through a life crisis trying it figure it all out. Going through a life and identity crisis while your bank account also depends on the answer is something I hope you never have to go through.I went from being an expert in “IT Consulting” with 9 years experience to becoming a “Marketing Director” and “Career Advancement Expert” within 2 years. I not only destroyed the ceiling that was preventing me from advancing, but positioned myself to never have a ceiling control my career and my life. I’ve never felt this free in my entire life.My goal is help you learn from my mistakes.------------------------------------------INTERESTING FACTSI wrote the book conservatively titled, "Fire Me I Beg You."LinkedIn chose one of my posts as one of the best articles in 2014.
