Just a guy. I've never been cool but am lucky enough to know and hang with some seriously cool kids. I'm bi-coastal (CA and ME). I work in marketing and advertising but try not to hold that against me. Quantitative. Desire to Learn. DIY. Kindness.

I created the Advertising, Media, and AdTech Voices starter pack and included you but I’ll bet you can do a rad one. I put you in mine, of course!

Oh dang, I was also a barista. One of the best gigs ever. I was 18 and just talked to shop women all day while drinking too much coffee. Simple days.

My strangest gigs were: Helped run an audition for American Gladiators (was offered a PA job at the end) and wrenched for a Pro Mountain bike team for a weekend when a mechanic was ill.

It sometimes takes a beat for people to show up in the search. I don't see you yet, but I'll stick with it and add you!

I now see a couple of advertiser/ad tech/media type starter packs but I think mine is best (of course I do). I feel like if I just invest a bit of time in this place maybe I'll be able to make it a bit more viable. The starter pack concept is pretty great, IMO.

And I LOVE Maine's proximity to Canada. I've been lucky to have to work in Canada a bunch over a couple of decades. I've spent a few months each in Quebec, BC, and Nova Scotia. I've been to Ontario but haven't spent much time there. NS is incredible. My wife wants to live there.

But I can finally put on my peacoat. Just chilly enough.

Oh, I know! We live on a lake. I want to see ice, that is when I know Winter is on. I'll probably be in California for a good part of the Winter so I'll miss a lot. I love both places, but Maine is really digging into my soul.
