I guess it's time I joined the "Spaces" crowd!

If you haven't found the magic post that tells my story, I'm a 43 year-old IT professional who's trying to break into the IM world. I have a lovely wife and teenage daughter, a good looking dog and an ugly cat! OK, I'm just kidding Sox. We live in beautiful Northwest Arkansas.

I started this Internet Marketing thing in the summer of 2007, and by the end of the year, made enough that it's going to be painful on the taxes. I'll have to plan ahead better this year. Most of my income comes from eBay affiliate sites using BANS software, but I also make a good deal from BUM marketing as well. Lately I've started putting together some videos; maybe I'll post some on my WA blog.

Sadly, my work doesn't leave as much time for my personal life and hobbies as I'd like. I'm a serious amateur photographer, and I've even won some awards online for some of my work. Unfortunately, I don't remember the last time I broke out the camera for anything but snapshots.

I like to fish, especially in the Gulf, but I don't get to do it as much as I'd like either. I also like to garden; I've found that it clears my mind and lets me focus on what's really important. My other hobbies are reading, computers (of course), golf, hiking, and geocaching. I've also built my own arcade (MAME) that plays hundreds of games, so we have lots of fun things to do to waste time!

During some classes at work a few years back, I realized that my greatest pleasure at work and in life in general is helping others to better themselves. It's great when I hit one of my personal goals, but it's so much better when I can help others achieve theirs. Maybe that's why I love WA so much...
