Welcome to Brazen Careerist!

About Me

I’m just a laid-back father-hubby-dood, just trying to dig life.

With two kids and currently in an MBA program, I’m leaning more about myself, children, business, and life in general than I thought I would ever have wanted to know. As it turns out, I’m loving this stuff.

I’ve always said that my vocation was to raise my children to become good people. Somehow a passion for small business fits with that vocation in that crazy head of mine - being able to take something I'm good at and help out another person or business is a blast.

I’m passionate about my children, my wife, technology, social media, small business, and all things tasty (mmmmmtasty). If you’re looking for professional help for your web presence, or for writing/editing, I’d love to help you out. If you’re here just for the fun of it, that’s even cooler.
