Blogger, VP and Geek - Kayla Fleming Talks
Kayla Fleming, the Vice President over at Surpass Hosting is one of those people who I had always read or watched (no wait, that makes me sound like a stalker doesn’t it?) but never introduced myself to till a few days ago. I needed an interesting personality to talk with and she seemed to take the proverbial cake. I have been a big fan of her work and wanted to learn a little more. According to her profile over at the WHIR…
Kayla has experience in all areas of web hosting from conducting market research to securing server environments. Kayla has worked with Internet companies for nine years and has been involved in the web hosting industry since 2002. Under Kayla’s direction, Surpass has reached record growth each year. She is also responsible for the company’s forum, one of the most active communities among web hosts.

How did you “break in” to the wild and wacky world of web hosting we live in today?
Kayla: My first job was doing tech support at an all Mac powered ISP. That was powerful inspiration to stay on the geek path. I watched sites like Blogger.com pop up from thin air and saw a lot of trends unfold. I think it happened very naturally and I was at the right place at the right time.
