He then served two tours in Europe during which he was deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom as an armor platoon leader.

He authored The Power in a Link: Open Doors, Close Deals, and Change the Way You do Business Using LinkedIn (Wiley 2011) and cofounded a software company to help people use business software better at scale.
