Booth 61 welcomed James Franklin, CEO of TechBridge, Vish Narendra, CIO of Alstom Integration at GE Power and Water and Leo Martinez, Community Education Coordinator and Youth Advocate at Caminar Latino. I hope you will listen to this powerful show highlighting the continued success and growth at TechBridge and how they impact the community through over 300 not for profit organizations. If you are not familiar with Techbridge, I hope you will visit their website to see the amazing life changing outreach of this organization. Through the hard work of a very dedicated staff and hundreds of volunteer leaders, over 7 million people were served last year by organizations supported by TechBridge.

Enjoy!

Great fun with Alan Stukalsky in Booth 61 with Ricky Steele at the TechBridge 2014 Digital Ball. Alan is a great leader in our community who is dedicated to helping others. Alan is also a “brainiac” having completed his BS at Emory in Mathematics and his BS in Mechanical Engineering at the North Avenue Trade Show aka Georgia Tech. His time achieving these degrees overlapped. Not a bad commute between the campus but can you imagine the amount of homework and project work you would have to complete while attending these two very prestigious schools at the same time? Thank you for your time and wisdom, Alan. Atlanta is fortunate to have you here.

James also let those who were listening Live on Saturday night in on a few secrets that were not announced until later that night, the most exciting is the new TechBridge Nonprofit Exchange. This new program is going to help TechBridge and our not for profit community serve tens of thousands more people in the next year.

Having the dynamic duo of CBQ and Aaron Hillegass from Big Nerd Ranch drop by the Booth 61 at the TechBridge Digital Ball was a real treat. First, I have never seen Aaron without his trademark cowboy hat which you will see if you follow his Link. Secondly, these two gentlemen had just finished hosting/sponsoring the VIP reception for the Digital Ball. Listen to this interview and learn about the powerful partnership these two great friends have created. They are blazing a new trail in Atlanta and around the world. I wish both of them great success. Listen and Enjoy!

For those of you who follow me on Facebook, you may think that Jay Ferro and I are either having a “bromance” or I am a serious “Jay Ferro Groupie”. I understand your thought process. Jay has often been a guest on Booth 61 with Ricky Steele and hardly a day goes by without me posting something about or sharing a picture of the two of us together. 🙂 The real reason for this is that Jay is everywhere! Jay donates his time and resources to our community like few other. I was very appreciative that Jay once again made the time to visit Booth 61 during the reception at the Digital Ball. Jay shared his wisdom and his insight about TechBridge, the Digital Ball and what makes Atlanta such a giving community. I hope you will listen to this interview with an open heart because you will be blessed. Thank you for all you do day in and day out to help improve the lives of people you will never meet, Brother Jay!

Wonderful time sharing with my friend and the CIO of the Automotive Parts Group of Genuine Parts, Karen Kreider. Although only relocated to Atlanta for a little over 2 years, Karen has jumped into the Southern spirit of Servant Leadership very quickly. This is Karen’s second Digital Ball and in our time together she shared what this event means to her. Karen also gives a nice shout out to the South for our generous nature and volunteer spirit. Keep your eyes on Karen Kreider. She is going to be a super star CIO in our community for many years to come. Thank you for your enthusiastic support of TechBridge and our not for profit community, Karen!

Although I have only known Lisa LaRoque for about 3 years, she is one of my favorite people. The first time we met was at the Dell SecureWorks Thursday morning Bible Study. Later we met for lunch and I knew we would become life long friends. Lisa became the Executive Director of the Georgia CIO Leadership Association late in 2013 and she is already doing a tremendous job serving our CIO community. I am certain with Lisa’s hard work, this year’s CIO of the Year event will be the most successful to date. Although Lisa has her own association to run and budget to raise through sponsorships, she is active in the United Way and in TechBridge where many of the Host Committee are also members of GCLA. I am grateful that Lisa is part of our community and part of my life. This is a double blessing for sure.
