Most of you know I’m a college undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-Stout.  I have worked for the university for nearly three years consulting about technology and trying to shape the culture around new media technologies.  Like any college student I have almost no free time and work hard to pay for rent, bills etc.

What most of you don’t know is my fiance, Jessica, has been struggling with medical bills as of lately.  This has put some extra financial strain on us and used up much of our discretionary income.  However, taking care of your loved ones  is important, more important than nearly anything else actually.  I want her to feel secure and safe knowing I’m there for her instead of having extra money to spend.

I love technology and work hard both in the classroom and at my job.  I have come to be a huge fan of Gary Vaynerchuk.  For those who don’t know Gary, check out his site and learn more about him, such an awesome dude!  Gary, in conjunction with his company VaynerMedia, is putting on an amazing conference in Tahoe at the end of September.  I’m drooling over the idea of going.  The conference will feature some of the best in the technology industry and I would do almost anything to go.

So where do you come in?  I need your help.  I’m turning to the tech community and my friends to support me in attending my first ever technology conference, and meeting Gary Vaynerchuk and Kevin Rose.  I watch every single Vaynerchuk video and have followed Kevin Rose ever since his days on TechTV when I was a kid.

Yes!  You can propel me into digital geek greatness by supporting my learning and expertise by helping me get to TahoeTechConf.

To those who decide to support me, I love and cherish you all.  Thank you for supporting me and my quest to be the biggest and best technology geek on planet earth!  What I’ll learn will be so powerful and so important, you have no idea.
