After half of a life in addiction, Grace gave Jimmy Cioe the second half in recovery. Which means he has spent his life studying every facet of this gem we call addiction plus treatment, recovery and healing. He became licensed in alcohol/drug treatment and, for the last twenty-one years, worked and managed virtually every aspect of the treatment continuum, including a city detox, outreach, case management services, outpatient treatment, in-patient, long-term residential treatment and intervention. This experience includes working with the full gamut of homelessness and mental illness diagnosis. He now blessed to be the Program Coordinator of Recovery Initiatives at the Governor’s Institute on Substance Abuse in Raleigh, NC. He has been licensed or certified in various states including New Mexico, Minnesota, Texas and North Carolina. Jimmy has also gone beyond recovery and treatment into the study of healing in all its aspects, beginning with nutrition, energy systems (Polarity, Radix, and Craniosacral) and core strength training. His desire is to understand and communicate a holistic approach to healing and to cultivate a sense of history, allowing him to place issues within their broader historical context. His interest and passion is the intersection of psychology, communication and spirituality. Years working with Native tribes in New Mexico grew this perspective leading to presentations on the bigger picture, starting with Recovery Oriented Systems of Care, coupled with greater visibility for Recovery. Through the doorway of Recovery Community Messaging presentations, he is able to synthesize this broad view into a snapshot of solutions, amplifying the beauty of a Recovery Oriented System of Care. It is through this prism, speaking truth to power, that solutions to national problems can be found.

Since 1999, we have been building websites and working on internet marketing projects for businesses around the world. We have worked on projects for Super 8, InterContinental Hotels Group, Fiscal Progress, Forethought.net, Apartments.com, and many more. OptSus grew from a computer repair company called Jones PC Repair, which began in 1995. As the internet became a more popular place for commerce, our business transitioned from simply repairing desktop computers to installing wireless networks and building websites. Today, OptSus is focused on helping our clients build strong sustainable businesses on the internet. The roots of the tree depicted in the OptSus logo represent our long history reaching back to a time when websites were built using Notepad.

Being a small business myself, I have understood the intricacies and challenges of running a small business and creating a brand strategy from scratch. I help small businesses create a lasting digital footprint with a strategic and collaborative approach to their social media marketing by creating compelling messages, paid campaigns and high-impact brand narratives. Along with traditional marketing, I take great pride in helping clients reach new audiences, ‘narrow-cast’ to niche markets and show them the ROI in social media.
Some of the services I provide are:
1) Social Media platform set up and maintenance
2) Regular content creation and curation and posting
3) Campaign set up and optimization
4) Cross-platform branding and strategy
5) Platform monitoring, outreach, and community management
I’ve been in marketing for several years and decided recently to focus on digital media marketing specifically social media. I work mostly with small businesses and nonprofits.
Blame my mother. It’s all her fault I studied journalism. I was bored around the house one summer day, playing with our new computer. I decided to write a few news items down in the Word processing program. “Household Happenings” only published two issues. Naturally, my mom thought it was fantastic.
I dismissed her career idea. But she must have planted a seed in my head because by senior year of high school, I knew what I wanted to do: write for a newspaper. I later worked for multiple news publications in Illinois and Tennessee.
I moved to Raleigh in 2007 and spent three years working as a web and broadcast producer for a local TV news station. There, I learned other forms of writing and gained skills in web, social networking. I also learned how to deal with the pressure of producing live TV news.
In 2009, I began using my skills to write articles, blog posts, press releases and web copy. A year later, I left the steady job to start my own business as a writer and editor. I love helping with community and civic events and boards, including TEDx Raleigh and The Raleigh Public Record. In 2017, I launched podcast about transportation in Raleigh. In 2018, I merged my business with one of my largest clients, The Department of Marketing.
As I embark on new ventures and uses for my skills, I think about that seed Mom planted years ago. I’m lucky she did, and it keeps on growing.

I am fortunate to be running a top shelf, cutting edge, award-winning ad & PR firm for B2B and Consumer clients, from DC to Tampa with the best bunch of misguided media misfits and crayon pushers ever assembled, but they are really, really good. We set in motion some of the most successful marketing strategies and tactics, some of which are award-winning! In my off time I write, and pursue art, golf balls and fish, not necessarily in a particular order.
