I have detailed a lot about myself in the last six months on this blog. Most of it has been to share my story to show others what they can achieve, and also that issues will come along, and how to handle them.

When I first started immersing myself in this industry I had a tough time. People will find this interesting, but I am painfully shy. Like to the point where I am uncomfortable in large social settings. I have figured out ways to cope with my social awkwardness in order to keep myself from handicapping my growing businesses.

I know there have to be others out there like me.

Next week I will be in New York for SES New York. I am attending to show off our new company Second Step Search, and to speak on a few panels. I would love to meet as many people as I can while I am there. However, if I don’t get things rolling before I go, I will spend all my time working.

So here is our chance to be social in a setting of comfortability. Let me know something about you, and also let me know if you are attending SES New York. If you see someone interesting in the comment thread reach out to them as well. Get a pre-conference conversation going and take it into the event.
