Cody McKibben’s Summary

I'm a Sacramento-born, Bangkok-headquartered digital nomad, a Web Presence Consultant & Blog Developer, and lifestyle designer. I'm extremely passionate about helping others break free—liberating themselves from traditional work, creating their own entrepreneurial ventures, living remarkable lives, and doing good for others.

My mission with my business partners is to share our wisdom with others to help them become liberated. We want to share our skills, information and services to help make the world a better place. By helping our clients become location-independent, we free up time that can be spent towards charitable causes and worldly good.
