About Dave Weiss

Who am I? I have been a marketing and technology professional for nearly 15 years. With degrees in both Advertising and Computer Science from Northern Illinois University, I find it easy to wear both hats, which I think is a bit unusual. 

I've done a bit of everything in my professional career.  Directly out of college, I worked for two global technology consulting firms as a database designer, computer programmer, and project manager, but eventually jettisoned the "rat race" for a more entrepreneurial lifestyle. Currently, I work as a marketing professional with a focus on ecommerce systems, search engine optimization, blogs, direct email marketing, and internet video production.  I am a proud resident of the great city of Chicago, where I reside with my wife, Risa, and two young children, Hannah and Steven, as well as our cat, Gorbachev. 

Other sites I work on:
WrigleyvilleSports.com a Chicago retailer of officially licensed merchandise for the Chicago Cubs
WeRockChicago.com my wife, Risa's Chicago real estate video and real estate sales blog

Recent TypePad Hacks clients I've worked with: I've assisted with design implementation, search engine optimization and consulting for the following blogs:
