DaVinciDeb – Deb Frey
Our Resident Twitter Expert, Trainer, Consultant, Speaker
Vice President of the DaVinci Institute
Named Vice President of the popular counter-culture think tank, DaVinci Institute in 2003, Montana native Deb Frey is the author of the forthcoming Twittering DaVinci. Using the screen name, DaVinciDeb, she has become an overnight celebrity in the microblogging world of Twitter. Building on her reputation and growing expertise, Deb assists individuals and businesses in successfully establishing relationships in her monthly Twitter Boot Camps.
Because of the interlinking nature of the Web, Deb also coordinates marketing through other social networking
sites including Meetup, LinkedIn, Facebook, Plaxo and MySpace. Her marketing efforts have driven the DaVinci Institute membership growth – as well as a tradition of excellent speakers and programs. As a result, many recent institute events have “sold out” with waiting lists of people wanting to attend.
Deb is a “shirt sleeves” administrator at the Institute, referring to herself on occasion as the “chief cook and bottle washer.” Her official responsibilities: Member Relations, Marketing, Online Networking, Event Planning and Project Scheduling.
Deb richly enjoys working with the Institute’s many members and meeting the diverse professionals who attend
speaker’s events that have featured talks by such science luminaries as Robert Zubrin (author of Energy Victory); journalists including the Denver Business Journal’s editor Neil Westergaard; and pioneering entrepreneurs Dave Lester of Treeless Systems LLC and Scott Tibbits, CEO of Starsys Research Corp, as well as many others. “Their enthusiasm for what they do is contagious,” Deb said.
When she can steal time away from other duties, Deb also serves as a contributing editor to the Impact Lab, the DaVinci Institute blog billed as “a laboratory of the future human experience.” Through her work, Deb is evolving as an expert in the latest trends in research, news reviews, topical studies, and all the “crazy stuff” ignored by mainstream media.
