Brent has long been an evangelist. In his more recent roles as data analytics consultant and acclaimed speaker and his former marketing functions, Brent remains passionate about spreading data-driven words using cutting-edge innovations he helps evangelize collaboratively for clients of all walks.
In his current role as Analytics Evangelist at Adobe, Brent crowdsources collaborators, speaking event participants and, not least, broader users and/or stakeholders in his unique storytelling style of evangelizing data analytics solutions developed by Adobe, particularly flagship product Adobe Analytics. The engagements, speaking events and webinars are, for Brent, multichannel data analytics platforms aimed at evangelizing solutions for data handling, processing and management.
In his passionate efforts to evangelize, Brent has not been short of more channels for his web analytics interests. In his Web Analytics Action Hero and Web Analytics Kick Start Guide, Brent makes a case for web analytics by offering fresh insights into cutting edge data marketing and optimization solutions and filling in a practical gap of useful analytical strategies in current offerings.
Brent admits, in his web footprint, his dedication to marketing, notwithstanding his more recent data-oriented professional experiences. The common ground for Brent's ability to market remains, however, his immense skill to capture attention by well informed storytelling, a skill seasoned by extensive experience in speaking publicly and for executives and collaborators across different functions and contexts. Brent has led and/or participated in speaking events in US and Europe. His public speaking portfolio includes, for example, Shop.org, Adtech, Pubcon, and Adobe Summits.
Born a marketer, Brent evangelizes data analytics solutions by leading or participating in awareness raising programs and competitions including, most notably, Annual Adobe Digital Analytics Competition. By managing activities aimed at informing potential staff at Adobe on college campuses, Brent makes a case for corporate analytics as a driving force for future business intelligence insights and growth.
Bert holds an MBA at Brigham Young University and a BA at Simon Fraser University.

Todd Budin
Todd is a digital integration and business leader. His long career in digital marketing solutions, including more recently at Nielsen, has evolved from offering independent, digital marketing offerings for different clientele into multichannel, integrated user-informed solutions. Todd's digital marketing expertise comes against an extensive business and media marketing career in different functions. His current leadership is, accordingly, an organic extension of a long career evolving in response to changing business and media marketing landscape.
Informed by such rich background, Todd, in his SVP Ad Effectiveness at Nielsen role, leads innovative workgroups in order to develop user-informed, effective platforms across social, TV and web channels. His expertise at Nielsen cuts across different business functions including, for example, product and platform strategy, brand management, data analytics and agile experience.
Beyond Nielsen, Todd advises Talkbox and Techstars on strategic options for startup growth, agility, resilience and sustainability and was a member of Marketing Advisory Board at The University of Missouri – St Louis between 2013 and 2015. This community outreach and advisory roles played by Todd are, if anything, integral to his more formal, professional career. Indeed, Todd has participated in numerous public speaking events and has continued to advise, particularly startups, on issues of business strategy, growth and innovation. Todd is particularly interested in innovative naturally-grown food solutions offered by start-ups in his Boulder, Co's community.
Todd combines conventional, executive experiences in reputable corporations and more innovative roles (formal and informal) in his multiple, collaborative contexts, a combination which very few highly skilled professionals embrace.
