Martin Trautschold is the Founder and CEO of Made Simple Learning (formerly known as "BlackBerry Made Simple"), a leading provider of BlackBerry, iPhone, and other Smartphone Training Videos and Books. He has been a successful entrepreneur in the Smartphone training and software business for the past 9 years. With Made Simple Learning, he has been helping to train thousands of BlackBerry users with short, to-the-point video tutorials, and he has now co-authored ten BlackBerry-related guide books. He recently worked with co-author Gary Mazo on books for the touch screen BlackBerry StormT, the BlackBerry BoldT, the BlackBerry PearlT 'Flip' 8200 Series, and the BlackBerry CurveT 8900 Series. Martin and Gary also teamed up with Kevin Michaluk, founder of CrackBerry.com, to write a part-serious, part-funny, but wholly entertaining guide to BlackBerry addiction called CrackBerry: True Tales of BlackBerry Use and Abuse.

Martin began his entrepreneurial life with a BlackBerry wireless software company which he co-founded with his brother-in-law, Ned Johnson. Together, they spent 3 years growing it and then sold it--the company's flagship product "Handheld Contact" is still being developed, marketed and sold by the new owners. Martin also has 15 years experience managing complex technology and business projects for consulting, technology, and energy firms in the US and Japan. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Degree from Princeton University and an MBA from the Kellogg School at Northwestern University. In his "free time" he enjoys spending time with his wife, Julie, and three children. He spends time every week helping with math in his daughter, Cece's, 4th grade classroom. He also tries to grab a few hours to row with his daughter, Olivia, at the Halifax Rowing Club in Daytona Beach, hop on the Concept2 rowing machine in his office, or ride his bicycle with friends in Ormond Beach, Florida.
