11/12 - After losing almost all of my events for the year, with others' support I launched the #wekeeprunning project to help sustain the industry (RDs and Runners both) with information and resources during the Coronavirus outbreak. This project went inactive for a while but is being brought back at a low level and integrated with OPE's strategy. I am currently spending December in Texas supporting events, but am seeking longer-term partnerships in Colorado, Texas, and beyond.
What Do You Need?
You're the director of an established but ambitious event or series, used to wearing every hat. You've been around for a little bit, and you want a committed local operation with reliable people, each specializing in a key area.
But maybe you're not there right now - and right now you just need someone who can help you get there, picking a few of the hats you wear every day and helping you focus on how to get to where you need to be. You may want to tie it all together more or find and try out some new ideas.
You need someone who knows a little bit about everything in the industry and can hop right in, connect you with the best vendors (and vet the ones you have), execute, and help you focus on to the long-term. Let me help you get "On Path".
