About Andy

8 yrs as a Cold Warrior for the Marine Corps. Have been out for a long time and have learned a lot about adapting Marine determination and persistance to success in the CivDiv. Am pretty dang good at editing resumes to highlight military experience in a way that resonates w/civilians. I wish I had all the answers, but I feel most comfortable providing guidance in the area of written communications.
I can also shed some light on the business dynamics of broadcast communications as someone who worked both on the content provider side and the broadcaster side for several years. Ask me about ARPU, SAC, and churn if you're looking at Dish, DirecTV, Comcast, etc.
Have extensive background in ITSec and compliance at large and medium-sized companies. If that's your interest, pls read "The Pragmatic CSO" as it will save us both a LOT of time and do far more to prepare you than I could without it.
