I say Good Day, and I mean it.

People often don't realize how much handshaking has to go on, on or offline, to make a difference in your bottom line. It's been said a numerous times opportunity doesn't happen, it is created.

I'm Andy Ciordia, based in Charlotte, North Carolina. I've been digging, lurking, and mildly participating in some of the articles for a few months. I've finally become a supporting member as I have really found value in the community here.

I've had so many hats in my life it looks like my wife's shoe rack. From athletic trainer to systems engineer, graphic designer to photographer, small business strategy to internet marketing tactics and even more.

I've always enjoyed a life of many roles. They all coalesce into a wide array of skills I can pull from and if I don't know the answer, I probably know someone who does.

With my entry here I hope to become a contributing member and help others. Begin adding to the healthy foundation that exists and hopefully build a local presence where right now there is none.

If I can be of any assistance personally or professionally let me know.

ps, on the side I enjoy skydiving, scuba diving, foraging, and supporting regional agricultural in the sustainable good clean and fair ways that Slow Food advocates. I love to help and teach and try to broaden peoples mind whenever possible without preaching.
