“It's so hard to stand on one's own record. You can fake virtue for an audience. You can't fake it in your own eyes. Your ego is your strictest judge. ” - Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

FROM ON MY OWN TO ON WALL STREET


2001: Started consulting from home for a hot minute before Investor Relations Services got ahold of me.
    2001 ~ 2005 Investor Relations Services (Creative Marketing) I entered the world of investor relations doing basically the same thing I did for bands, but for for startups looking to raise venture capital and take their companies public. I would interview the principal players of a corporation or business and then, after extensive due diligence of their business sector, find what I called “The Play” (that special thing that made them stand out above their competition), and put together a program that they could take on the road and present in front of potential investors. Here I really honed the craft of creative writing.
