Over the course of four years Morgan acquired over 1,000 domain names turning over 200 of them into online brands. Morgan has spoken at conferences in Ireland, England, Vancouver, and even in the Bahamas.
In 2011 Morgan and his fiance Daina started Appraiso, a solution for appraising website resale prices and catching potential scams. Later in 2011, Morgan attended Lean Startup Machine in New York City and formed a team to create a next-generation recruiting platform - NYC Hired.
