I'd like to take a moment and introduce members to David Reich, a recent Tulane University grad who will be helping us with an IAOC membership drive this fall.

David graduated in May from the AB Freeman School of Business at Tulane University with a bachelor of science degree in management. He has worked in marketing and public relations with Ike Behar -- an upscale men's clothing brand in Miami -- and Michael Werdiger, Inc., a diamond jewelry distributor in New York.

I've asked David to begin a series profiling all the IAOC's members on the blog. So don't be surprised if you are profiled in the coming weeks. Those who wish to be profiled need only join the IAOC and those members who do not wish to be profiled should send email to David Reich.

David, welcome aboard and thanks for helping the IAOC grow its membership leading to our spring conference in Zurich.
