Wm. Dexter Jones, CEO and Founder of Vendaetta Systems, is a native, and longtime resident of Dekalb County and the State of Georgia having attended Snapfinger Elementary School, Lithonia High School, and Morehouse College. Mr. Jones has a passion for community service exhibited by 25+ years as a volunteer youth baseball coach/trainer in several cities including Dallas, TX; Houston, TX; Union City, GA; College Park, GA; Atlanta, GA; and Decatur, GA. Mr. Jones describes himself as “both an educator and lifelong learner.” He regularly participates in Career Day activities and has a Code Academy in which he introduces technology to Primary School students.

Mr. Jones’ 20+ year professional career demonstrates proven technology, business development, and leadership skills across several verticals including, but not limited to, digital marketing, telecom, automotive, insurance, hospitality, and state/federal government. Some of his accomplishments include: the “Best in Show” award at TexMed, “Technology Innovation of the Year” from NAPA, a Dentsu (Japan) Grand Prix “Innovative Use of Search” award, a “System and Method for Attributing Engagement Score of a Channel” (patent pending), and the lead architect for automating the property tax/appeals process for Harris County, TX. He is also an annual guest lecturer for the J. Mack Robinson College of Business/IAE de Paris MBA program.

Mr. Jones is a father to four children, three of which currently attend post-secondary schools; he says his greatest accomplishment will be to graduate all four. To close, I will quote what Mr. Jones calls the turning point of life: “Each one of my children represent a sudden, and distinct change in my life. Each one has a different personality, different interests, and spirit. It is through them that I learned ‘service as a lifestyle’ and hopefully, as a family, we will pay forward all that life has to offer.”

LUKE MARKLIN, CEO of Bellhops is an EXPERT and SHARES TIPS ON EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO PREPARE FOR A MOVE because quite frankly, moving can be very stressful. Go to  www.GetBellhops.com  

LUKE MARKLIN, CEO of Bellhops says, “Americans are on the move. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, people in the U.S relocate, on average, about a dozen times during the course of their lives”. Whether you’re moving across the country or to the other side of town, it can be a daunting task – and not particularly pleasant – especially if you don’t have your act together.  

Luke also shed light on recent data showing what cities are experiencing the greatest influx of people, and why. If you’re one of the more than 35 million Americans who’ll be moving to new digs this year, this is news you can use. 

Declutter your home (donate or sell the stuff you don’t need). Be strategic about your moving date (weekdays can be less expensive and avoid the first and last weekend of the month as those days tend to be busiest).
