The core team has emerged from the founding network as people committed to building this business as primary contributors. As an organization, we are much more concerned with accomplishments and contributions than we are with business card titles. In order of joining the organization, the core team includes:

Greg Berry
Greg is the initial founder of w1sd0m, holds the vision, spreads the words and supports the rest of the team with resources and connections that allow us to accomplish a significant goal.

Greg has over 20 years experience as an entrepreneur, with a focus on creating, convening and facilitating communities of action. He started his career in newsletter publishing, quickly morphed to the Internet, and then the World Wide Web as his primary canvas. Along the way, he developed media properties in radio, TV and print, always in service to encouraging a particular community towards some action. For three years, Greg followed a different path, working with world leaders at some of the world's most influential foundations to convene elite conferences where major issues -- from malaria control, to global media attitudes toward the Arab world, and African agriculture -- were not only discussed, but measurably impacted. Personally, he is a husband, father, passionate back country telemark skier and stands firm in his belief that the bicycle is one of the most transformative pieces of technology on the planet.

Cameron Burgess

Cameron takes responsibility for the marketing portfolio at w1sd0m, including strategy, UI design, advocacy for the needs of social entrepreneurs and other change agents, and tough-minded approach toward the value we are creating in the marketplace.

Cameron owns and runs three companies in Australia that each serve the social&sustainable venture community. His consultancy -- uncompromise -- most closely captures his overall character; as a commercialization advisor to early-stage companies, he extracts the fluff and replaces it with hard-nosed business strategy, that allows the world-changing work of social entrepreneurs to actually create an impact on people, and the planet. Cameron has been a sustainability pioneer in Australia, having founded and advised many of the first sustainable minded enterprises in the country, including Australia's first organic restaurant, first sustainable commercial cleaning company, first cause-marketing firm, one of the first green hosting companies and the largest digital marketing company for wellness businesses in the world. Personally, Cameron is a husband and a yogi, and is engaged in organizing the Australian impact investing and social enterprise communities.

Heidi is responsible for sales and strategic relationships, as well as advocating internally for the needs, demands and challenges of the impact investing community.

Adam Rentschler
As our interim CFO, Adam is responsible for our financial modeling, and contributes to both our business strategy and product development.

Adam's knowledge of early-stage finance stems from his experience as a venture capitalist and as a startup CEO. During a year spent with two venture capital firms -- PTV Sciences and Centennial Ventures -- he reviewed over a hundred business plans, was pitched by dozens of companies and made one successful investment. Adam has twice been a CEO (once as a founder) and was responsible for strategy, business development and fundraising for a venture-backed startup. His sustainability credentials include founding betterVote, a political education company, working for the last three years with a variety of renewable energy companies, and volunteering at a Judging Chair for the CleanTech Open. Adam lives in Denver, Colorado, and is an avid skier and rock climber.

Jim Ruberto
Jim is the tech wizard for w1sd0m, advocating for simple and practical technology deployment. In a longstanding partnership, Jim and Greg have been evolving concepts around measuring reputation and contribution to community for nearly a decade, studying, testing and refining key hypotheses at the intersection of social capital and value creation.

Jim is a leader, contributor and advocate of Denver's sustainability and re-localization movements, living the Open Space philosophy every day by lending support to numerous sustainability-minded organizations. His IT background is rooted in the classic developer profile -- he got a computer in his teens, and started making it do the things he wanted. As a professional, Jim spent his early career writing software for banks -- back when security and info protocols were not as developed as they are today. Jim's interest in biometrics started here, and he has developed proprietary methods that rely on intuitive process, not brute force technology. As an architect at Geek Gene, Jim led the development of innovative reputation and incentive systems that rely on a mix of qualitative and quantitative measures of an individual's contribution to her community. Personally, Jim is a bass player and music producer, balancing his creating spirit across both hemispheres of the brain on a daily basis.
