Resources Erik Wullschleger Erik pairs up Sprint resources with entrepreneurs at the Sprint Accelerator in the Crossroads. He’s a self-professed mobile tech geek and corporate intrapreneur. They just wrapped one of the first major programs, a Mobile Health Accelerator powered by Techstars. Now that he’s recovered from demo day and the following celebrations it’s time for a few questions. You’ve Been Involved From the Start. What Led to the Inception of the Sprint Accelerator? I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of innovation through the power of constraint (time, resources, money, etc). I was talking about this idea and more specifically the newly launched Nike Accelerator with a…

Resources Brent Anderson Brent has the highly enviable role of Creative Director at Boulevard Brewing Company. You could say he’s a writer by trade, but that would be limiting given his breadth of experience spanning multiple roles, industries, and time zones. Either way he offered me beer when we talked, so he’s alright with me. You’re Joining Boulevard at an Interesting Time. What’s the Opportunity as You See It? and How Does Branding and Marketing Play Into That? It’s an incredibly exciting time to be here, not only as a marketer but also as a long-time fan of what they create. The…

Resources Tom Wirt Tom is JNA Advertising’s shiny new Executive Creative Director. He built his career through writing and creative direction at Littlefield in Tulsa then Barkley & Blacktop. I know him as the guy who puts funny words together on Twitter. What Attracted You to JNA Besides John Nohe’s Charm? John and I actually worked together before but he doesn’t remember it. I have this need to be remembered, so I went to work for him. I wave and state my name to him every morning. This was also a great opportunity for me to get back to what I know and what I’m good at while…

Resources Joe Longstreet Joe builds hardware prototypes, writes firmware and node apps as a Creative Technologist at Barkley. Most of his career has involved leading teams of web and mobile developers on projects using NodeJS and Ruby on Rails among others. Last Time We Talked You Were Madly in Love With Nodejs. Still the Case? Most definitely. Node isn’t a great solution for all projects, but it’s a good tool which helps me solve the problems I face each day. The real time web, small scale applications, and a fast development workflow are critical components to my work, they’re also some of…

Resources Jessica Best Jessica is a speaker, strategist, and digital marketing evangelist at Emfluence. She’s a one-to-one marketing nerd, now taking that passion to the masses through her public speaking efforts. WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT YOUR INCREASED SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS? I love that I’m able to tell people the “secrets” of how to make money at this stuff. Email marketing is a unique industry and you never really learn it in college, so I love the look on people’s faces when I tell them something that will increase open rates by 10% or increase their email return on investment by 25%.…

Resources Jennifer Wadella Jennifer is Founder of Kansas City Women in Technology and Web Developer at VML. Her love of tech started at age nine with the family computer and she never looked back. She also runs CoderDojoKC, is a Minddrive mentor, sits on the Shawnee Mission CTE Advisory board, and participates in KC Girls STEM Committee. To top it off, she somehow finds time to compete in west coast swing dancing. I’m exhausted just listing it out. Let’s see how she tackles it all. Serious Question: Do You Sleep? Actually, I do. I’m envious of some of my developer friends who can operate on less than…
