In the immortal words of Liam Neeson, “What I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career.” As the CEO of Coyote, a boutique brand merchandising company, I've honed these skills to help professional sports teams and their sponsors hit promotional home runs (and touchdowns, and slam dunks... you get the idea).At Coyote, we don't just think outside the box; we create the box, decorate it, and make sure it’s the centerpiece of your next nationally televised event. I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the most iconic professional sports teams in the world, ensuring their brand shines brighter than a championship trophy. From full stadium giveaways to seven-figure sponsorship deals, my career in the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, and collegiate sports is anything but ordinary.One of my proudest moments? During the pandemic, we created life-size fan cutouts for the opening of SoFi Stadium for Sunday Night Football. When the world was on pause, we brought the fans to the game in a way that only 2020 could dream up. Who knew cardboard could be so heartwarming?Graduating from the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program was a highlight—a nationally recognized nod to my entrepreneurial flair. It’s like getting a gold star, but with more networking and fewer crayons.Navigating the pandemic was like playing a game without a rulebook. With live events on hold, we pivoted faster than a point guard in crunch time, inventing new services to keep the ball rolling for our clients. Flexibility and creativity became our MVPs, leading to our highest revenue year in 2023.My superpower? Building relationships. I connect with clients on a personal level, turning business meetings into strategy sessions with a side of camaraderie. Our clients trust us to always have their back, and my team knows I’ll never ask them to do something I wouldn’t do myself. After all, in my book, there are two types of people: dispensable and indispensable. I aim to be the latter, and I inspire my team to do the same.Looking ahead, our goal at Coyote is to be the superstar of the sports promotional world. We want to innovate, collaborate, and leave a lasting impression on the most celebrated sports franchises out there. Sports bring us together—across all divides—and being part of that magic, no matter how small, is a true honor.So if you're looking for someone with a knack for turning ordinary promotional items into unforgettable experiences, let's connect. Together, we can make sure your brand doesn’t just play the game but wins it.
