Loved playing golf with Bob at @traleegolfing@BallybunionGN - old course and Cashen course. Amazing fairways, treacherous fescue and stunning views. @reswot
What an honor to be inducted into @NewYorkAMA Marketing Hall of Fame. After years building marketing strategies and brands for financial institutions, I am thrilled to help @FordhamGSB students learn academic theories, gain real world experiences & help them launch their careers.
Honored to be inducted into @MarketingHoF. Congrats to all inductees! As a marketer and educator, I am grateful to help the next generation of marketers at @FordhamNYC. The recognition as a Legacy Builder is a reflection of the many people who have contributed to my mission.
Wonderful to attend the largest AMA ICC with @FordhamGSB students who joined marketing competitions, networked at the career fair and attended keynote & panel presentations! Honored to have judged the Perfect Pitch competition https://t.co/xX8pa0DKoK
Thrilled to have hosted the third @FordhamGSB Marketing Careers Conference, a forum for over 50 marketing executives to share insights and advice with over 100 graduate and undergraduate students. Work ethic, curiosity, collaboration are differentiators in the job search process.
Entering my “public company director” era this week which means a quieter social media life.
Thank you, FinX and this community of X, for helping me grow in sources and research, refine communication skills, and find joy in connecting with very bright minds and kind hearts.
As I step into a new role as a public company director, I’m simply choosing to redirect my posting energy and more time to serving the shareholders and leadership of Kirkland’s | The Brand House Collective for this next season.
Too many to name, and I will undoubtedly forget someone I appreciate, but a few shout outs of gratitude are fitting and right.
To @chriscantino, thank you for being the first big account to shout me out when I had fewer than 300 followers.
To @LillybeLilly, thank you for co-creating the first ever business news show on social audio with me during the Clubhouse days. @operationdanish picked up where we left off but the joy of CH is where it all started.
To @cvpayne, thank you for continuing to make space for under-followed and well-researched voices on your show. You are the best financial journalist on air.
To @profplum99, @DiMartinoBooth, @KeithMcCullough, and @MichaelKantro, thank you for keeping the craft alive.
To the many subject matter experts who freely share data and wisdom, thank you @FreightAlley, @Johncomiskey77, @johnkonrad, @maphumanintent, @EPBResearch, @AnnaEconomist, @firstadopter, @LukeGromen, @m3_melody, and @yaireinhorn.
To @RobertMSterling, the best memes and the occasional ever long post.
To my former sell-side friends, @MattJMcClintock, @MattyMo34, @RyeNotBerben, @paulcerro, @jeremy_lopez, I’m so glad we have a platform to reconnect and share our nerdy work.
To the many podcasters who invited me on their shows, thank you: @CoffeeandaMike, @TonyNashNerd, @chigrl, @AnthonyCrudele, @adamtaggart, @thoughtfulmoney.
One final shout-out to two accounts that actively helped expand my reach: @StockMKTNewz, and @stocktalkweekly. Thank you.
To the many of you who are anons but have trusted me with your real identities as we navigated real business or economic issues, I’m honored and I’ll never tell.
My time on @X has been relatively short: officially here for more than a decade but only really engaged on the platform post-2021.
Was it worth the time?
Absolutely yes.
Inspired by Harvard’s ‘Teaching with AI’ workshop.Tested new AI capabilities and tools.Created a podcast from a syllabus, coded an interactive game for a marketing class and developed a new case study. Enjoyed meeting global educators who shared successes and challenges using AI.
Very honored to receive the 2025 Dean's Impact Award for teaching, research and service from @FordhamGSB. I am thrilled to help our future marketing leaders to prepare for their career journeys.
Treasury will be searching for new issuance patterns. An accurate interest outlook (guess) is difficult but imperative at this juncture. If lower fed funds rates trigger high long term rates, terming out T-bills to the 3 to 5 year pocket maybe the best strategy. Look for new, complex QE strategies in 2025. Will derivatives play a larger role?
Need a fresh reason to spread kindness? How about my 50th birthday?!
In honor of my 50th birthday this month, I’m inviting the X community to participate in spreading acts of kindness. Buy someone a coffee. Write a note. Give to a charity.
Why the X community? Because I personally have experienced growth in my craft, kindness from strangers, and friendship with folks I would have never known without this platform. I approach my 50th with a deep sense of gratitude.
I would love to see 50 acts of kindness as a result of this invitation. If you feel led, drop it in the comments below.
If you’re wondering my favorite cause, look to the students at North Central University! No obligation to give but I will link my giving page in the next post.
As a professor, advisor, and mentor to many first generation students, I can personally attest to how $500 to $1,000 can be the literal make or break financial moment for students to continue their education. They borrow textbooks, use friends’ computers, and often take the lowest possible meal plan just to make ends meet. A small gift goes far in being the difference between stopping short of the goal to finishing the journey.
Was great to join #Fintechb2bmarketing conference. Enjoyed speaking on the #AI panel and discussing how curiosity, willingness to learn and experimenting with the new tools are critical to driving change and business growth.
Join #FintechB2BMarketing Community North American Conf in NY on June 6. I will join Marcel Chambers and James Jockle on the "The Evolution of #AI Impacting the future of Technology – How CMOs are leading their teams into the new frontier" panel.
Register! https://t.co/e5AZRL7g6y
Congratulations @NeelyTamminga ! Well deserved award for sharing your insights, experience and caring with your students. They are so lucky 🍀 to have you as their professor!
TL;DR: a banner year for the “professor” hat I wear. 💙🐏💛
Backstory ➡️ I decided to try my hand at teaching Fall 2020 because I don’t do well with “downtime.” Our consultancy, @DISTILLIQ, proactively and empathetically released all clients from our retainers and contracts in March 2020 because many of our clients needed understanding more than insights during the crisis of having to layoff 85% of their workforce in weeks; they didn’t need invoices. We continued to serve them, but differently. That left me with more time on my hands than I wanted. (PS this ended up being a very good business decision but that’s for a different story).
I answered a LinkedIn post looking for adjuncts for a local, small, faith-informed private university. I had guest lectured at another university, but not a whole semester’s worth of teaching.
Apparently, a week before the post, the team had been praying for someone to join the team with my profile of experience (how cool is that?!).
While most universities had optioned to be remote Fall 2020 out of logistical and political ease; @NorthCentral_MN decided to dig in and do the hard work of being hybrid and in-person. While teaching wasn’t a breeze in those conditions, I simply fell in love with the new hat I was wearing and the community I was called to serve.
You see, many of our students are first-generation college students or come to school with families making significant sacrifices for their child’s education. Our students will often work 1-2 jobs just to make their payments to be in school. 100% of our students receive some form of aid and many of them qualify for Pell grants which paints the economic picture of our school. It’s especially for these students my heart is drawn to teach and offer a world-class experience and opportunities of mentorship.
This honor reflects G-d’s blessing of an offering of time, or as I like to teach, a decision to be in “a long obedience in the same direction.”
Do I wear two professional hats as Professor and Consultant? Yes.
Am I tired at the end of a week? Yes.
Do I say “no” to opportunities that don’t align with my values, calling or capacity? Yes, often.
Is it worth it when you realize students felt supported, seen, invested in, and loved when they voted you as Faculty of the Year? Yes.
What “long obedience” are you in right now that needs a little encouragement? Hopefully it’s this post.
Rooting for you! Keep going.

ChatGPT stormed through the first quarter like a hurricane, and similarly, its trajectory was difficult to track.
We created this timeline to chart its evolution, and it may look a little familiar to anyone who has lived in NYC...check it out via [https://t.co/eTYeGUnNdP].
