I am a third-generation Washingtonian and I own four small companies. My wife, dog, and I live in the suburbs of DC and spend our days marketing for different industries.
My real interest is the creation and management of my automotive web sites, DTMPower.net and BlackRedGold.net .
DTMPower.net is a BMW web site that I started approximately 8 years ago in the basement of my friend's house. I recently took control of it again with my business partner and we look forward to reviving the best BMW web site on the net.
BlackRedGold.net is a new company dedicated to German performance vehicles including Porsche, Audi & Mercedes-Benz. The design of BRG is something we are particularly proud of even though it's still a work in progress.
StandAlone Consulting Group is a company I own with my business partner and good friend Antony. We specialize in niche marketing for companies primarily in the fashion and automotive industries. We have done a fair amount of web site development this year, but really specialize in public relations and buzz marketing.
Lastly is Built Motorsports, a performance tuning company with a focus on European vehicles. I used to have a garage in Gaithersburg, MD, but have since closed up shop so to speak. While I would love to re-open a garage, there is a shortage of properly zoned commercial space in the DC area and I can't find anything worthwhile.
I am finishing my undergraduate degree at the University of Maryland - something I should've finished a long time go. While my professors are very good, I just want to get this finished so I can start studying for the CFA exam.
