Proudly served as a co-creator and start-up COO New Mexico United. This uniquely challenging, dual role required that I simultaneously co-develop and implement the emerging franchise’s vision and strategic plans.The shear audacity of our collective vision and first-year rollout strategy paid dividends that exceeded all expectations. Every minute of every day, New Mexico United continues to build new traditions, aiming to be one of the very best franchises in the USL--both on and off the pitch. What’s more, New Mexicans have a common, empowering goal to rally around. What was once thought impossible seems tantalizingly within reach.
