I have been a part of well over 100 product launches, several large company re-structurings, raising over $100M dollars, growing several businesses from 0 to over $100M dollars in revenue, and perhaps most proud that every company that I've been associated with is still going and growing over the span of my 15 years in the technology industry.
I am currently the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Mpire. Before Mpire, I was President of the corporate travel division of Expedia, Inc., the world's largest online travel company. Prior to Expedia, By the time I left, the business grew to a billion dollars in sales and profitable in just about 2 years after we launched. Before Expedia, I was the founding partner of the interactive entertainment provider AtomFilms and was President of Atom Entertainment, a firm backed by both Sequoia Capital and Macromedia (now Adobe) purchased by Viacom for $200M. Atom captured over 20 million unique monthly users and became a leading consumer destination for online interactive entertainment. I was also at RealNetworks driving the consumer products like the RealPlayer product line. Lastly, I learned to love UNIX and X Windows at WRQ (now AttachmateWRQ), a privately held provider of enterprise software.
