For more than 30 years, I have had the opportunity to work with people in the electronic and print media in many different positions and countless situations and subjects. During the mid-80, I enjoyed heading my own publishing/editorial team for Horizon House Publications in producing Telecommunications Magazine North American and International Editions. I take great pride in some of that team like Denis Gilhooley subsequently scaling their own careers as Publisher of Communications Week International, the Wall Street Journal and many related initiatives. Over this period, in working with the press, I've always maintained an international reputation of frankness and honesty in identifying and explaining significant developments. It also helped that I was one of them and spoke their language.

This background proved very valuable in rapidly scaling Internet visibility among the press. The period between 1994-95 became particularly intensive as reporters and publications around zeroed in to get interviews and just talk about the Internet on a daily basis. This particular profile was from the April 1995 issue of the new Japanese magazine "Internet."
