ATLANTA—Sept. 12, 2008—Ryan Esparza, of The Home Depot, won the Annual Response Mine Interactive Client and Vendor Appreciation Poker Tournament on August 21, 2008. RMI began hosting the event two years ago to recognize all our business partners-whether client or service provider. Over seventy people participated in this tournament including employees from RMI, MSN, Google, Yahoo, The Home Depot, and Rooms To Go. Hollie Hester, who helped coordinate the event, said "It was worth all the hard work that went into planning this event to see everyone together in one room having fun."

He is currently working on the Business Systems and Analytics Team which manages the systems that the business uses to build out the site and run analytics. Second and third place went to Alyssa Miller, Search Media Strategist, and Jose Ramirez, Search Account Manager, both with MSN.
