“Finally, the whole notion that only hard things are worth doing if you want to have a big impact misses the disruptive power of simpler technologies. Yes, building chips may be “harder” than building software, and building Internet software may be easier still. I really don’t know. Certainly, there are more people who can do it. But that is a good thing. Today’s startups stand on the shoulders of older technologies. Simpler technologies can reach more people.”
I lead business development at Union Metrics for our flagship product TweetReach. Born and raised in Atlanta, I completed my Master's in Digital Media at Georgia Tech and moved to San Francisco in April 2010 to consult on new media strategy for top companies and consumer brands.
I am passionate about technology and new media and voraciously consume all the best blogs and books on both.
