I teach aspiring anglers and entrepreneurs about the business of fishing and marketing strategies to give you the confidence to sell yourself to sponsors and companies with ease.

This time at BASS wrapped three decades of experience in the outdoor industry into a dynamic and robust role and experience. I worked with the best marketing team in the industry to bring the most engaging, creative and targetted advertising and sponsorship programs to the top marketers in the country at both endemic and non-endemic brands and execute them at the highest level.

In this role I nurtured relationships with some of the biggest brands in the world including Toyota, Carhartt, Pepsi and GoPro helping them to ensure authenticity and relevance to the outdoor audience in their experiential and media marketing efforts. I also oversaw staff producing more than 35 events per year including the Bassmaster Classic which attracted as many as 150,000 attendees in my last year heading it up.

Storytelling has always been my strong suit and this role allowed me to work with networks to craft and develop television programming to their needs. I pitched dozens of networks with many concepts and successfully found homes on Nat Geo Wild and the Weather Channel for several shows like Mississippi River Quest which followed 3 men from the headwaters of the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico. The network describes it as a "blue chip natural history series revealing the rarely-seen magic along the longest river system in the United States."

I started as a Graphic Designer and soon moved to producer/director of many television shows for ESPN and ESPN Outdoors including The Orvis Sporting Life, BASS University, Bassmaster University, BASS Tech, Cumberland Stories and as overall showrunner for the Sunday morning ESPN2 Outdoors block of programing. We coordinated all outdoor programming for the network for over 25 years at JM Associates and served as an extension of the network to manage production companies all over the country producing programming for the network. I was also on-camera talent and host of Cumberland Stories in ESPN2 and co-host of ESPN2 Outdoors.In 1990, I was part of a leadership group that created the ESPN Great Outdoor Games which featured competition among the best in the world in five sports in a four-day event featuring fishing, timber events, shooting, and sporting dogs. We produced 17 hours of original programming for ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC. I also wrote and shot photos and video for ESPNoutdoors.com and Bassmaster.com.
