I have spent my life living across America and presently teach courses in a nearby University and helping others on the internet. My background is both academic and "real world" and I have invested over 40 years in communications and as a manager and sales professional. I continue to learn and try to make those lessons freely available to all who seek to benefit from my own experiences.

I placed my first niche targeted website online in 1994 and presently show others how to identify and construct niche hobby and business websites and networks. I have experience in developing and implementing keyword and metaweb strategies.

Presently, I am involved in the development of as series of projects and product launches on and off line. I mentor Internet marketers; those wanting to become Internet Marketers and those hoping to use available online strategies and resources to promote and advance their offline businesses.

Any person or group interested in developing an online business that relates to their personal hobbies, skills and interests! I can show you how to determine a niche market that matches your interests and that has a market large enough to support a marketing campaign.

Actively seeking collaborators and joint venture partners for product and project development, as well as, mastermind efforts.
