About Me
I moved to USA from Canada in 2006. I live in Brookfield with my wife and Great Dane.
In the past I have been a musician (drummer), youth mentor in the Dominican Republic, English teacher in China, web designer and business owner in Wisconsin, and now... I do search engine optimization for small businesses in the Milwaukee area.
I am certified in Google Analytics and Google Adwords. I love sharing what I know and learning from others.
My car goes fast because it's yellow.
