    I've been involved with the Internet and technology from the days of dial-up and DSL. Over that time I've managed and built customer service and technical support teams and have designed a host of websites. My focus now is on the content side - I write well-researched articles, blog posts, and website content for companies worldwide. I have owned a number of blogs on different topics (Zone 6 is SciFi and Fantasy based and CXMaster is business focused). I do all my own research and all of my articles are 100% unique.
