Currently I am the President of DealTaker.com – a website devoted to saving people time and money when shopping online. I have been here for almost three years in the midst of a surge in people looking for ways to save – that makes it fun to provide such a necessary and wanted service.

Previously I have worked at various online companies including CardsDirect.com, CollectiblesToday.com and JCPenney.com.

I grew up around the country; born in San Francisco, moving north to Washington State (Vancouver and Bellevue), then ending up in Austin, TX for high school. After earning a BBA and a MS in Accounting from Texas A&M University, I embarked on my wonderful career.

I married an amazing woman in my wife Michelle and have three awesome kiddos – Landry (11), Leighton (9), and Layne (4 and only son).

I spend what little spare time I have training via my 5X5X50 plan (5 miles a day, five days a week for 50 weeks a year) and playing indoor soccer when possible.

Living in Frisco, TX (just north of Dallas) this is my third consecutive Avon Walk and the AMGB team is such solid support that it is as much fun as it is rewarding to build the awareness and raise the funds.

A big thanks to affiliate.com for sponsoring the Affiliate Marketers Give Back 2011 Team Shirts. This is the 2nd year that they’ve done that for us and we sincerely appreciate it!

Our team is going to look super-snazzy as we chug-on through the 39 miles in the Rockies, this June!

We’ve already raised over $60,000 and we’re not quitting yet. Donations can be made at http://www.DonateToTeamAMGB.com at any time.

Thanks again, affiliate.com!

In June, I will once again be heading up Team AffiliateMarketersGiveBack.com in our annual Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.

I have about $9,000 remaining to hit my lofty goal of $50,000, and I’m trying just about every fundraising idea known to womankind 🙂 This post is no exception.

“I love wine. Lots and lots of wine.”-Missy Ward

Many of you know that I’m a wine geek, and on my way (slowly) to becoming a Master Sommelier. One of my favorite things to do is share the wine knowledge that I’ve accumulated with friends that enjoy wine as much as me.

Taking that one step further, I decided to create a wine, that I’d be proud to stick my name on and use it as a way to help raise funds to fight breast cancer.

As such, Signorina was born. It’s a lovely 2008 burgundy-style blend, with all of the grapes sourced from incredible vineyards in Napa, CA.

While I was in Napa last week for a wine-tasting trip, I got the news that Signorina was ready to ship!

How To Get Your Hands on a Bottle of Signorina.

Now, there are only 100 bottles of Signorina in existence and are being sold on a first-come, first-served basis, with the net proceeds going to my 2011 Avon Walk for Breast Cancer.

If you want to get in on a bottle (shipping is included) please visit http://savetheboobies.chipin.com/amgb-2011-avon-walk

Thanks for your support!
