Social Media Associate at SMCpros, co-community manager at CoCo, and tech analyst at MitchellHislop.com

What do you do?
I help companies best leverage their online presence -this means social media, their website, SEO/SEM, Web apps, anything and everything.

What’s your biggest challenge right now? In other words, what’s kicking your ass? (pardon our French)
I am a full time student, work nearly full time, and am trying to learn more programming languages in my free time. Right now, this whole “there are only 24 hours in a day thing” is kicking my ass.

What’s a typical work day for you?
Up at 7, checking on things from the breakfast table, Heading into office or class, then usually meeting with someone, home to get work done, repeat. Most of my time is spent on the go, returning calls or emails while in the car, in line, or at any flat surface. I live off my laptop and my phone 100% of the time.

Why do you hang out at CoCo?
Its a great place to get thing done. There are always great people, and I wish I could live in the space. Its a good location (for me), and it just fits with my life.

What coworking surprises have you had so far?
Mostly, the surprises that come from the chats that I have, which make me think in new and unique ways. I have had more “Aha!” moments at CoCo than any coffee shop or library I have ever been at.

How can people find you on the Internets?
They can look at MitchellHislop.com, or by searching for my name.

Do you blog? If so, what kinds of topics do you write about?
I write about tech. Gadgets, cool things going on, thoughts that I have, the random links between things that my brain comes up with. For example, I wrote about the thoughts that came up about Human Computer Interaction while watching Iron Man.
