As an entrepreneur, digital marketer, and Starbucks addict, I focus my energy on helping grow businesses, whether my own or others.
I own (fully or partially) multiple companies, ranging from digital marketing, software development, Software as a Service, and event audio/video/lighting/experience production.
I am currently based in Indianapolis, Indiana, but can be found traveling on a routine basis – officing out of any local Starbucks.

Organizational Culture Is Like An Iceberg [Infographic]
Corporate culture is an incredibly important and impactful aspect of business that is often ignored. Either business leaders are too focused on the bottom line to worry about how they get there and the impact that is had on their employees or they simply are ignorant to the gravity company culture plays on their business. I have known people who make great money but hate their job and their life around it, and I have known people who make a very modest income but love their job and enjoy their life. The key difference between these two scenarios is company culture.

The Summer Slump: Decline of Productivity [Infographic]
The summertime is great for barbeques and family get-togethers, but can actually be a strain on businesses. Productivity tends to decline in the warmer months as distractions are plentiful and workers are weary of the indoors. There are several areas attributed to causing this decline in productivity. Some areas are in a business's control while others are not.

Keep the office space between 70-72 degrees for optimal production. Another aspect a company can control is vacation time. Many workers do not have the time they need to really [...]

How to Choose the Right Design Agency [Infographic]
Everyone has heard the saying that your website is your best employee. It works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with no 401k, benefits, or vacation all on a modest salary. Your website is a colossal asset, and it is not something you should allow to fall behind in design. Design trends and consumer preferences change over the years which means your website needs refreshed every few years. Refreshing is fairly simple with little cost, a few thousand dollars usually, but a total reboot can land anywhere from $10k-$40k depending on your needs. Of course, these numbers always come as a shock to many companies, especially smaller ones, but it is worth every penny! Make sure you [...]
Barriers To Organizational Change [Infographic]
Sometimes the best intentions fail. Why is that? There are companies out there who wish to change their corporate culture, image, or just simple processes, yet they can't seem to succeed. It turns out it is usually for the same reasons that always inhibit positive change -poor planning, poor leadership, and no employee buy-in. It doesn't have to be this way.
