- I'm one of the leading Digital experts at our annual Asigra Cloud Backup Summit where I have given numerous presentations to our partner network.  All of which have received excellent praise from our partners.  Plus I work with the entire marketing team to conduct this international conference in Toronto.
- Creating buzz campaigns like the Asigra Guide to Bacon (a bacon guide for IT users who love bacon) that are featured in presentations by Ann Handely and Jay Baer
- Creating more buzz campaigns by participating in the recent ALS challenge and encouraging my VP to participate.  Which lead to another major software company participating and eventually Michael Dell sending shout outs to Asigra
- Plus a lot more:)
