About Deb Frey

President of DaVinci Institute. Responsible for overseeing all day to day operations within the company as well as the financial well being of the company. I truly enjoy working with the Institute\'s Members and those who attend our events. These are very inspiring people, and the energy and enthusiasm that they exude is more than a little contagious.Whenever I can fit in a few extra moments, I serve as a contributing editor to the Impact Lab, a DaVinci Institute blog billed as \"a laboratory of the future human experience\". The research I do to find stories keeps me on top of the latest trend research, news reviews, topical studies, and all the crazy stuff that doesn\'t get covered in the regular media. The DaVinci Institute is a community of entrepreneurs and visionary thinkers intent on discovering the (future) opportunities created when cutting edge technology meets the rapidly changing human world.The Company is a non- profit 501 C-3 Corporation which produces a number of unique events.These events range from the two monthly networking events - the Night with a Futurist, and the Startup Junkie Underground - to a series of Boot Camps and Crash Courses primarily designed around serving the needs of businesses and entrepreneurs. Our events feature some of the most talented thinkers and seasoned veterans who have fundamentally changed the business landscape with the sheer weight of the footprints they leave behind. Our goal for each of these events is to serve as a turning point in the lives of all people who attend.Specialties: Quickbooks, event planning, event planner, customer service, purchasing, agent, marketing, finance, writer, blogger, administrative, human resources, mac user, microsoft user, software, programs, apple products,iPhone, macintosh,Twitter,Facebook,Plaxo,entrepreneur,networking,social networking
