Chris Weber’s Summary

My passion in new media is to see beyond rote process, de-humanized numbers, and inflated theory. My goal is to bring into sharp focus - People NOT consumers. Trends NOT blips. Content NOT clutter. Content that is relevant and meaningful. Content that engages to motivate action and energy.
