Damn...EGOL's makes me look pretty small.

In order: eagle scout, sandwich artist, web business entrepreneur, microsite consultant, web business entrepreneur, tax software programmer, SEO salesman, web business entrepreneur, educational software salesman, MBA, marketing executive / SEO, web business entrepreneur.

See a theme? Each web business taught me a certain lesson...each failure is something I won't forget...each attempt kept me going. This one will and is succeeding.

The innocent era:
Dishwasher, retail food sales,

The darker era rife with debauchery and all kinds of (not so good nor clean) fun:
Govt grounds keeper, tech tutor/trainer, OO Programmer (on the mac, puke), db4 programmer (double puke), pizza delivery, Govt. systems administrator

Finally wisdom begins to seep back in...
tech based entrepenuer, db/application/web programmer (multiple db's and lang's), entrepenuer, SEO.
