A new professional producing events for a DMC in the Tampa, FL area. I am starting to build lasting relationships with professionals in our industry. A thirst for knowledge that is not easily quenched, I am looking to make a difference in the world. Maybe difference is not the right word, wanting to make an impact on the world somehow, someway.
Most unusual aspect of your job: Personally, the most unusual aspect is leading a group of individuals that are much older than myself. Also, clients sometimes second guess me because of age. :-/

One thing about you that most people don’t know: I learned how to do math by keeping score at a bowling alley with my parents as a kid.
