I’m an American digital marketing executive and I help businesses introduce research-based new media strategies into their processes layers to connect with new customers and steer them to experiences, decisions and transactions, period.
While the internet is overflowing with people who say the same thing about themselves (I call them Schmexperts = schmuck + ‘experts’), some of them are actually quite good at it. My essential difference is that I deliver results, backed by my own case studies, rather than showing you recycled bullet points and throwing around fancy buzzwords.
I am the co-founder and CEO of CrushIQ. We are not social media ‘experts’ or ‘gurus’ - we are Digital Business Architects.
Formerly, I was with The New York Times 
Company, where I advised business leadership on emerging profitable digital solutions for them. Prior to that, I was the co-founder and CEO of SayItSocial, the nationwide social media marketing tools and education company.

I’ve spoken to thousands of people about how they use
