I currently work as VP at Virante, Inc. We are a web marketing/consulting firm based in Durham, NC. You can also find us at www.Virante.com. I enjoy playing sports, social media networking, and online gaming and reputation building in my spare time. I am an avid voter of stories I feel deserve to be seen. I post periodically, but generally only stories I think may go unnoticed when they shouldn't. Humor is my favorite category as a smile can cure a thousand illnesses.
