Glenn Convey: President

Glenn Convey believes in "Dreaming your Goals" and "Living your Dreams".

After successful careers at Compaq Computers, Banyan, and Cisco Systems, Glenn lived his dream.

For six amazing years, Glenn sailed the world’s oceans with his young family on their sailing yacht "Starboard Attitude". He describes the extraordinary people, his sailing friends, and the experiences as life changing. Living on the ocean experiencing different countries, cultures, and people has allowed him to see the world the way Carl Sagan eloquently described it as ‘The Pale Blue Dot’. Glenn now looks at our planet as one people living on a group of islands connected by sea and sky.

The World Wide Web connects these islands and provides everyone with the opportunity to see the world in the same way. Therefore, it is a natural fit that Glenn is now helping people and companies to "Live their Dreams" at Metamend. Our Search Marketing Services enable our client’s around the world to experience extraordinary growth.

When Glenn’s not engaged with a client or the Metamend team, you will find him on the water with a fly rod in his hand encouraging people to "Live their Dreams".
