  1. Carl David Suicide Prevention Advocate

    01/09/2020

    Carl David Suicide Prevention Advocate

    Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as a third descendant of a 4th generation art dealer family, Carl David is a firm believer in ‘paying it forward.’ He has overcome a great life struggle, and though it was painful, he has learned to turn the negative into something positive. When David was only sixteen, his brother Bruce decided to take his own life. Bruce David was only twenty-two-years-old at the time of his suicide. Bruce’s death tore the David family apart; so many questions unanswered, too much hurt to endure. The family had begun to realize that even though Bruce’s battle was over, theirs had just begun. Together, Carl David and his family had to learn to fight and keep strong no matter how challenging the circumstances. Just eight years later, David’s father, a legendary art dealer, died suddenly and unexpectedly on a buying trip in England. He was only fifty-eight-years-old. David was devastated by his brother and father’s deaths. In response to his grief, David decided to write a book. Initially, the book titled, Bader Field, was written so that David’s children (not yet born) would one day be able to know the greatness of their grandfather. Over time, however, the book’s true context came forth. Bader Field is a survivor’s story and talks about how death, specifically a suicide, can wreak havoc on loved ones left behind. The book reveals the story of how a family endured struggle and torment after suicide, and their fight to survive. David uses the book as an outlet to ‘pay it forward’ and help others cope with depression and suicidal tendencies. The author wants for those who are suffering to know that though they may feel lonely, they are not alone.

    Erik Rind - CEO of ImagineBC Helping You Regain Control of Your Big Data and Profit

    Erik Rind is the CEO of ImagineBC and an expert in understanding the largely untapped potential that Blockchain and AI technologies bring forward in order to help secure user’s data. He has had significant exposure to writing software in the HCM space and is in the position to bring these skills to his new company. Erik graduated from George Washington University in 1983 with a B.A. in History. Erik has over 30 years of experience in building advanced technology solutions and has been involved in the HR services industry since 1990. His professional track-record includes starting and then selling PowerPay software for $22 million and becoming President and CEO of Lyceum Business Services until 2018 when he chose to embrace his entrepreneurial side. Additionally, Erik is an advisory board member to Vertalo, Dashub, and Health Wizz. ImagineBC which is set to formally launch in late May (https://imaginebc.net/), was inspired largely by the growing outcry across the globe surrounding how vulnerable consumers are in relation to their personal data. While some major tech companies have announced sweeping changes, with privacy (or at least some version of it) in mind it's clear that more needs to be done. It's that central thought which has come to shape ImagineBC. Simply put, ImagineBC has identified how blockchain technology can be combined with other new technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, to create innovative solutions that will empower individuals to efficiently and easily control the distribution of their personal information and turn this distribution into an income stream for themselves and not Facebook, Google, Amazon and all the other 3 rd parties currently profiting from their personal information.
