I wish we were pirates, we chose advertising instead. Pundit, Guru, Sherpa, Ombudsman, Biznessman, and All-around Good Guy.

Since it's "my blog" here's my head shot & boiler-plate. Don't misquote me:

Bryan Landaburu, President/Evangelist of Fuze.
Bryan is a fourth-generation northern Nevadan, having grown up in Sparks, before cutting his teeth in the epicenter of the internet boom in the mid '90s. After working for several tech companies, he eventually landed at BEA Systems where he served as a Director of Web Strategy for World Wide Partner Operations. Savvy beyond his years, he decided to return to his hometown and start his own interactive agency [FUZE] in 2003 and hasn’t looked back since. His client portfolio has grown steadily and has included global brands (SAP, Cisco, BEA Systems), large national accounts (Boyd Gaming, Plasco, CLP, Spartan Staffing, The Entrust Group, ID Wholesaler), vital local clients such as Dickson Realty, Reno-Tahoe Open), and non-profit/pro bono clients including Nevada Commission for National & Community Service, Community Foundation of Western Nevada, Step2, JDRF, United Way, EDAWN, and the Reno Tahoe Young Professional Network (where he holds a board seat). A dynamic and frequent public speaker, Bryan is one of the leading authorities on digital marketing and web strategy and how to use the web to maximize marketing effectiveness.

Previous Speaking Experience:

• National: BEA eWorld (Paris), BEA eWorld (San Diego)
• Regional: Advertising Association of Northern Nevada, American Marketing Association, Outdoor Retailer, National Forrest Recreation Association, Entrust Group Franchise Summit.

Here's a little bits about my wonderful company:

FUZE
We are a digitally-led advertising agency called FUZE. We make people money with our pretty pictures and twisted words.

We are always interested in hearing from new and interesting companies to work with. We work for companies in the Fortune 100, on down to the neighborhood watering hole. We enjoy clients with big ideas & realistic goals. Clients who are looking to achieve or maintain a market leadership position, and those who value a strategic direction vs. pissing in the wind. We still enjoy working with bands, hot rod builders, boutiques, new clothing companies, action sports athletes, etc. While big business is our bread & butter, the rest makes us feel like a whole enchilada. We have opinions, and enjoy play days. We conveniently live in the center of the universe, Reno/Sparks/Tahoe, Nevada, USA.

Finally, here's a window into my personal world:

Personal
I am a dedicated and loving father with great adoration and appreciation for my family and friends. I also have an affinity for fast cars, dangerous stunts, playing [DW] drums, hot rods & kustom kulture, race-fuel-powered sports [vs. the human powered variety], photography, writing, travel, wine-ing, dining, and various luxury lifestyle items that contradict my low-brow mentality.

Happy days.

PS
If you would like to contact me about speaking, potential projects, or to voice your vehement praise [distaste] for my prose, please call vs. email. I don't publish my email address because, I hate SPAM and I run about a week behind on email as it is.
