I’d get right down to the motors, and wonder at how the magnets covered with copper wire moved. I was intensely curious about how things worked.It started with my father, I guess. We always had computers in the home, starting with a Vic20, then the Commodore 64, then PCs. Eventually I was building my own PCs while going to school for business and entrepreneurship.I always wanted my own company, but before I could start one I got a job at Dell. It was in sales, which I didn’t want. I wanted a tech job, but I had a recruiter talk me into it. It was at the height of the Y2K crisis, and I’d be able to make a good amount of money in a short period of time because almost every computer in the world needed to be replaced. My recruiter promised to find me a better tech job in a few months.But something funny happened. I fell in love with sales. The combination of tech and sales was a great fit. And I became great at it. Eventually that led to me becoming a Brand Manager for servers and enterprise products. In taking on marketing, I built a number of my own processes to help sell, pitch, and market better. These were the early foundations of this company I run today.But before I got to that, I had another career pivot, moving into the M&A group at Dell, during a startup acquisition binge. I got to work with some incredible founders as we worked to expand and scale their ventures within Dell. And I re-fell in love with entrepreneurship and startups.It wasn’t too long after that, that I decided the time was right to start my own company, and I wanted to help tech founders get better at telling their story to their customers.I’ve been doing that now for 10 years, and since then I’ve helped thousands of founders pitch better, market better and sell faster.I’ve built a strong virtual team that helps me execute on every project we take on, and ensures the highest quality outcome for every customer".Home - TheStoryArchitect---Note: If you require an accommodation, please notify us by email at least 1 week before the event date at bec@brampton.caTo cancel the accommodation, we require 5 business days' notice before the event date. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/1ded1be0-1c17-11f1-b26e-0b9773d2f47a-rimg-w1200-h675-dc010101-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brampton/story-boarding-a-five-line-narrative-formula-entrepreneurs-connect/100001984402871407 - **Event Categories**: Business, Workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brampton - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Brampton Entrepreneur Centre - **lat**: 43.6844891 - **long**: -79.7605906 - **full address**: Brampton Entrepreneur Centre, 41 George Street South, Brampton, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Story Boarding: A five-line narrative formula – Entrepreneurs Connect - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/9f59333386e16ca9a89fb1c601809c603b60964c81e2ebad3e2f94c4bdfae7b6-rimg-w1200-h675-dc010101-gmir.jpg?v=1773102125 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Story Boarding: A five-line narrative formula – Entrepreneurs Connect being held? - **A:** Story Boarding: A five-line narrative formula – Entrepreneurs Connect takes place on Wed, 06 May, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Wed, 06 May, 2026 at 08:00 pm at Brampton Entrepreneur Centre, 41 George Street South, Brampton, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Story Boarding: A five-line narrative formula – Entrepreneurs Connect? - **A:** Story Boarding: A five-line narrative formula – Entrepreneurs Connect is organized by Brampton Entrepreneur Centre. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
