Chief Operating Officer

Dylan Clear has worked in media production - video, streaming media and web - since 1993. He began his career in the NYC area working as a multimedia producer for the AICPA, a nonprofit industry group, where he launched and produced their live webcast series. After leaving the AICPA, he worked as a Senior Webcast Producer for Lehman Brothers, a Wall Street investment bank.

A passion for the empowerment of progressive movements thorough new media led him to Bioneers, where he worked as Web / IT / Digital Media Director for 3 years, spearheading an organizational transition to enterprise-level IT networks, professional digital media production, and technology-driven operations. He also led their migration to web-based CMS and CRM software, developed by Advomatic. The new site immediately tripled the organization's earned income, and was nominated for a 2007 Webby Award in the Charitable Organizations category.

He was hired by Advomatic in 2007, where he manages web development for America's leading advocacy and progressive organizations by an international team of premier Drupal developers.

Dylan has a BA in English from Rutgers University, a Masters of Science in Information Technology from Capella University, and has studied web design and production at NYU. He is currently based in Santa Fe where he lives with his wife and two children.
