Jesse DaCosta’s Summary

I am extremely interested in the ever changing world of marketing, in particular Internet Marketing. I began as an inside sales associate and worked my way up into becoming assistant marketing manager for one of the leading companies in food-service equipment and supplies where I was involved mainly in direct marketing practices, trade shows, etc. During this time as manager I became extremely interested in the workings of the web and was given control of pursuing new opportunities for the company website.

I then became "addicted" to learning and experiencing as much as I could about Internet Marketing and the web, including search engine marketing (PPC), search engine optimization (SEO), web analytics, social media marketing, blogs, programming and whatever else pertained to the Internet and marketing. I decided to take a great opportunity to work alongside one of the pioneers of SEO, Jill Whalen, at High Rankings where I was immersed in the world of Internet Marketing everyday.

I love to learn, own hundreds of business books, and truly enjoy my job as it I am able to discover and test new things everyday since nothing in this field ever stays the same for too long!

I am will be going to UMASS Boston to receive my MBA with a specialization in Internet Marketing starting in fall of 2008. I have also taken many classes and certification courses pertaining to my field.
