Brad provides strategic guidance for all client activities and solutions, ensuring that Tahzoo faithfully executes and delivers on its brand promise for client satisfaction. Brad has the unusual distinction of having had three careers prior to founding Tahzoo. Brad began his career in the display department at Nordstrom when they had seven stores. From there Brad rose to hold various leadership positions; playing an important role in delivering the customer service that would make Nordstrom a household name. Seeking a new challenge Brad moved to Microsoft where he learned how to leverage technology to achieve business goals. Brad's third career started with Ascentium, a leading marketing agency; here he absorbed how to build brands and market products. Tahzoo is the culmination of these three careers: a passion for great customer experiences, the technology to enable their delivery and the marketing insight to craft them.
