Dean Burnham, President - Email - 1-877-578-4774 x 303

From a very early age, Dean has enjoyed a passion for playing (and sometimes creating) great games. Today, that passion plays a huge role in the continued success of PSI. After earning a BS degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1993, Dean started his professional career as an Operations Manager with Year One, Inc. (a top distributor of restoration automotive parts for classic American cars). In 1996, Dean 'shifted gears' into a career with White Wolf Publishing (now CCP) initially overseeing its warehouse operations and later leading its Sales and Marketing efforts. In 2002, Dean and White Wolf colleague Mike Krause decided that their collective expertise in sales, marketing, warehousing, and logistics could be a valuable service to other publishers and manufacturers and formed PSI.
