Let's let Rick talk for himself - no one can say it better than he can.

"Having been in the Internet market since 1994, I understand the dynamics and interactivity of the Web and the overwhelming possibilities of this market as the Fourth Communications Medium. My true ability and passion is Web branding: identity, planning, marketing, and Web site dynamics. I not only know what and who is "cool," but more importantly, I understand the foundation of how they got that way. I know the Web, its technologies, its movers-and-shakers, and how to develop business from it.

"I have worked 24 hour days, worked deals on both coasts, been first in line at COMDEX, met Jerry Yang, been turned down for a business card by Marc Adreessen, founded net-centric Internet corporations, and talked, and more importantly, listened, to some of the most dynamic forward thinkers in the Internet world. Oh the joy of stress, doing deals, forging alliances, and closing accounts. I have helped build Web sites, brand Web teams' identities, and helped raise venture capital. I have also learned more from deals and projects that went south, than by any deal that went "according to plan." More than anything else, I have a passion for the Web that keeps me on the cutting edge and helps me stay totally focused on this industry and Web marketing."

With over eight years' experience in marketing, sales and new business development with high-technology and computer-related industries, Rick is a sales-making, technology-driven, totally wired Web machine. He's been working exclusively in Internet and World Wide Web strategic marketing since 1994, and doesn't plan on slowing down anytime soon.
