Jessica HardwickI have a passion for barter and more than 15 years of high-technology experience that I bring to my latest challenge — founding and leading SwapThing.com. My goal is to greatly increase the incidence of barter by making it faster, easier and more inexpensive.Prior to founding SwapThing, I was founder and president of geek2chic.com, a content/e-commerce web site dedicated to forming an online community based on a broad range of interests. I directed the company's growth to nearly 30 employees and five million monthly hits. I began my career in sales support and customer support before moving to Silicon Graphics, at which I served in a series of increasingly responsible positions, including Developer Programs Manager and Internet Alliance Manager. In the latter position, I managed strategic relationships with more than 100 global Internet partners. I later was Director of Partner Programs at RightPoint and Senior Partner Marketing Manager at PrimeResponse. A native of Scotland, I have a bachelor's degree in economics from Santa Clara University.
I believe in community and do my best to provide workable and sustainable solutions for non-profits. I'm also interested in new technology and how it can be applied by young parents to stretch a tight budget. |
