Official Bio - 
Dan Portnoy is founder and president of The Portnoy Media Group, Inc., a specialized media-creation firm focused on advancing mediums of connectivity. Innovative, creative, and mastermind are the first words that come to mind when “Portnoy” is brought into the equation.
His passion for unlocking potential in those he works with is reflected in his professional career as a trainer and motivator. When he is not quoting Strongbad emails, he is coming up with idea’s to make the music scene a bit more relevant. Networking is a definite forte, along with the ability to create something out of nothing.
As a New Media Consultant, Dan educates consumers and businesses alike equipping them to ask informed questions when navigating Web 2.0 (and higher)impacts thousands while talking with movers and shakers about cutting edge innovation and principles for businesses that want to be market leaders.
Dan is also the host of THE DROP, a cutting edge podcast and now a full 60 minute syndicated radio show. Both offerings feature movers and shakers in the fields of music, film, TV and print. The show seeks to educate while building a community for music lovers and pop culture mavens without the elitist trappings and prima donna overtones.
His most recent project, The Great American Road Trip, is a 5 part film mini-series documentary using the internet as the main distribution tool and pushing the envelope of the podcasting world. The film has been featured on TV and in the news and recently just shown as part of th Riverflick Film Series.
Prior to starting The Portnoy Media Group, Dan has worked to improve businesses and engage non-profits with coaching in communication and expanding the scope of their markets.
Unofficial Bio -
Growing up was pretty average, but I do think I have more good memories than most. The part that is important started in 1997; following a screwed up engagement and onto the workaholic pace of life, I was confronted with a choice. The choice of quantity of my wallet or quality of life. I went with quality and soon left the hustle and bustle of Metro Detroit and moved close to the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia. In March 2008 I headed for adventure in Southern California and I’m having the time of my life.
Currently enjoying puppies, walks on the beach and sushi….
