Tyler Hayes (@thetylerhayes)’s Summary

Started out as a serial entrepreneur, looking to become a social entrepreneur in the next 5-10 years. I draw experience from being a leader in short-term small business ventures and campaigns. Most of my ventures involve computer and/or web-based technologies. I often inject personal values into my ventures, such as being customer-oriented, "green," efficient, holistic, and above all else, trying to make the world a better place to live in any way possible.

Always looking to make something bigger & better. Put humans on Mars? Let's do it. Solve world hunger? Let's get started.
