Chris Mak’s Specialties:

What drives me is helping young companies develop an audience -- then creating sustainable and scalable advertising or ecommerce business models. I possess strong operational and product development skills having launched a company from concept and developed an ad and content distribution platform.

My sweet spot is social media: online videos, casual games, widgets, communities, blogs, and social networks.
