I've searched the world to find the right word to describe myself and I've finally figured it out. I'm an ENIGMA. On one hand, I’m a media guy... I've spent years strategizing media for clients at multiple agencies. In my current role, I help plan advertising for one of the largest brands in the world. It still makes me a little giddy when I come across advertisements I've had some part in placing. On the other hand, I'm an entrepreneur... I, along with some pretty bright friends, started and ran my own business for a few years. Not only did I find it extremely rewarding, but I learned one of life's greatest lessons in doing it. (Pro Tip: the lesson is in my first LinkedIn Blog Post). On another hand (let's take a second to acknowledge that one can only have but so many hands), I'm a motivational speaker. I'm so much of a people person that I have a coworker who calls me ''Coach''. And that's the thing, I love to see others succeed. I revel in the idea of helping people grow. So it is... the sum of this man can be categorized as a single word- ENIGMA. That is, until the puzzle changes again.
