I haven't been on the Young Entrepreneur Forums in a while! I see a lot of new faces around here, and I just wanted to say hello and re-introduce myself for those who have no idea who I am.

I am a 24 year old serial entrepreneur and internet business consultant from Southern California. I love business, and it basically consumes my entire being. Some say I am successful, but I'd like to think I am just skilled, and blessed.

I love helping other Young Entrepreneurs, and I love meeting like-minded people.. so feel free to ask questions, introduce yourself, and become my new best business friend! *=)

Hi, Terra! Welcome from another serial entrepreneur who happens to be just a little older than you.

When did you start your entrepreneurial ventures? As a child? Teen?

To answer the questions:

Yes, I do have a few businesses that I run. First, I run a network of e-commerce businesses ranging from high-end decor, custom artwork, to a major advertising network that spans all ranges of media (online and offline). This advertising network is still in beta, but is doing very well. I'll release the info here when it is public.

I also own an internet business consulting firm based here in Southern California. I am also a regular speaker at various conventions and corporate meetings, as well as an individual consultant regarding all aspects of internet business ; including social media marketing, web strategy, web design, and so on. I am in the midst of writing my first book as well.

I started my first business at 13, doing web design, coding, and freelance for some large companies like at&t, yahoo, and ebay.. back during the dot-com boom. Luckily for me, I was bidding on these jobs under a screen name, because if they had known I was 13, I likely wouldn't have gotten the jobs. *=)
