Today I was reading Amber Strocel’s post on Re-evaluating Your Dreams and Desires and it got me thinking. I wrote in my last post that I’m turning over a new leaf this year; that I’ve decided to focus my efforts on things I have always wanted to do but never have instead of on things [ READ MORE ]
This coming week I’ll be joining a panel of ski industry professionals to discuss social media’s place in resort marketing as part of the ResortXpo Virtual event. The experience of preparing for this has been interesting. On the one hand, I know I’m immersed in the world of social media for work and in my [ READ MORE ]
Guess I’m learning a valuable lesson in blogging: if you don’t write, there is no reason for people to visit. Work has had me super busy lately. It’s the time of year when I’m focused on the biggest sales campaign of the year, plus I’m planning for the next year. Our fiscal year begins June 1st, [ READ MORE ]
I just read a post by Darren Rowse over at ProBlogger that had my skin crawling and made me feel very uncomfortable. Darren put into words that which I have never had the nerve to say in either spoken word or type. He described me as he spoke of the early hours of Sunday morning: “…you [ READ MORE ]

Last week’s work week sped by like a bullet train and [ READ MORE ]
Back in September I went to Blogworld & New Media Expo 2008 in Las Vegas. The number one best thing about going to the conference was the connections I made there; I even got to rub shoulders with few blogging/social media/internet rockstars including Chris Brogan, Jason Falls, Darren Rowse, David Alston, Dave Taylor, Steve Hall, Lee [ READ MORE ]
I’ve been so busy as of late I haven’t had much of a chance to write anything here. One of the most exciting projects I’ve been working on is the new Grouse Park Sessions blog and the search for the next great snow industry bloggers who also happen to ride right here in Vancouver. Have you [ READ MORE ]
I am the first to admit I’m into the internet. I have always verged on a little nerdy and somewhat socially awkward in my younger days. I can do face to face, particularly for business, but I’m much more comfortable in my jamies behind a keyboard. I like talking to people, interacting, and learning from [ READ MORE ]
I’m not sure if it’s just a God-given trait of all mankind or if it’s the artist in me, but I constantly feel the need to create something. I have this overwhelming yearning to create something of value to the people around me; something that will enhance the lives of others. Whether it’s writing, singing or [ READ MORE ]
