Whiteboard Drawer and Visionary

I have thought of many bright ideas before they were realized... by other people. What this indicates is that I'm a visionary who needs to be more assertive.

Currently I'm a law student focusing on Intellectual Property, but I would like to return to the startup world. I miss feeling like I'm going to have a heart attack on my commute home because of the chaos of the office. (That's normal, right?)

I was associate producer of the Life page at Ruckus Network. We rocked the funny content, tips and quips.

After that I spent a few months at K12.com before heading to law school.

Since then, I've done all that I can to ensure I remain the visionary I've always been. I think the Internet is going places. Really. I wanted a FriendFeed before it existed. I wanted it years ago, so that I could stream all of my personal data in one central location.

If I'm going to have all of these social network sites (seems like I add two more every day ... today it was Seesmic and Jott) then they should all be dumping my information in one central place. Did I already say that? Sorry.

Managing the our personal information is synonymous with managing our identities. My employers will check my online activity out. I will be judged by my peers, by my peers profiles, and by every last keystroke discoverable.

Although it would be easy to ditch Twitter, shut down Facebook, delete my blogs and move completely offline that is simply not the answer.

Instead, a free-flow open solution is what we all need. You give me that and I'll plug every last ounce of information I create via any one of the dozens of profiles and websites I use on your site.

Anyway, this is supposed to be about me. What else can I tell you other than that I can really get into the Internet life... the startup life... the new... the bold... the alpha, beta, new and next.

It all comes down to good ideas and innovation. I would love to be a part of another good idea. Yours, perhaps? Maybe I'll start one of my own someday. I certainly believe I have it in me.
