David Browning has been both a successful corporate executive and international entrepreneur and has suffered from a lifelong ailment. As Dorothy Parker said, "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity." Growing up in the Southern California surfing culture of the 1960's, he hitchhiked Europe at age 17, skied. rock climbed, played the piano in melodramas and bars through college in Colorado, and talked his way into an investments/banking job at 22. An M.I.T. business degree, 21 years at Citibank working in 6 countries, a son born in Hong Kong and two daughters born in Singapore, and it was time to pursue other dreams. He left banking at the top and became an artist, race car driver, and spent time with the family teaching the kids to surf, ski, love animals, and other important things in life. Early involvement with the Internet through angel investing led to co-founding and leading Inter.net, the first global consumer ISP with operations in 14 countries in early 2000. After 16 years, the gang of international entrepreneurs are still close friends. David is probably the oldest millennial in existence. He now writes, mentors entrepreneurs, coaches CEOs and is still traveling despite having flown over 3 million miles. He and his wife live in Switzerland. See less
