US Olympic Committee/US Olympic Festival ’95

What started as volunteering a few hours with the Colorado Sports Council while I was searching for a job, turned into the launch of my career. It was through this wonderful experience I began my Olympic journey, working with the USOC to develop brand, compliance, and Best Practice processes for the US Olympic Festival-’95. As often happens with non-profits, marketing, business development, grant-proposal and most importantly, the youth art program, were soon assigned to me too. While proud of all the work I did, including bringing in $250k of grant awards, it was seeing students around the world having life changing experiences through the youth art program that created my passion for corporate responsibility.
