David Weinrot: Sr. VP, Operations & Business Development
The Brainchild of the Publisher Program. No one is more compassionate or champions the cause more so than David "The Data Yearns To Be Free" Weinrot; he's been the voice and front-man for the Publisher Program since it's inception. Also, his Blackberry has fused to his skin from constant use.
Julia Barrett: Director, Publisher Program
Julia manages the overall business operations of the Publisher Program and sticks her nose where it doesn't belong on the engineering side. She has subscriptions to Martha Stewart Living, Esquire & National Geographic Adventure but doesn't regularly do anything that might imply, or actually read them.
Christopher Calvi: Sr. Manager, Publisher Program
Christopher is charged with managing the day-to-day business operations of the Publisher Program and identifying and building strong strategic partnerships with leading web companies. In his spare time, he hangs out on LinkedIn and volunteers at the local petting zoo recruiter, where he identifies and builds strong strategic partnerships with leading zoo animal distributors.
Bryan Byrne: Sr. Account Coordinator, Publisher Program
Bryan joined Team Publisher in 2008 to score some goals in the affiliate world. We were able to lure him away from MLS superstars New England Revolution, so when not tweeting Publisher news, he plays soccer with Ventura County Fusion.
Bryan is the only member of Team Publisher with a real Wiki page.
Jade Higgins: Account Coordinator, Publisher Program
Jade recently joined the Shopzilla Publisher Team as Account Coordinator, and to help balance out our overall soccer talent.
After spending 2008 as goalkeeper coach for Northeastern University's women's soccer, she is ready and willing to assist in leading our 5,000+ publishers to victory.
Thai Nguyen: Senior Software Engineer, Publisher Program
As a Senior Software Engineer, he is responsible for the maintenance and development of the front-end code and architecture. He has been and still is very instrumental in developing the core features of the Publisher Program. In his spare time he enjoys honing his Ninja skills, hoping to one day become totally invisible. Rumor has it he was part of the O.C. Asian Mofia, although it has never been corroborated.
