The annual Shark in the Park 5K was fantastic- record numbers of participants (594) made for a great morning at Gleason Park!

I was honored to be listed among the sponsors, and equally flattered to be handed the mic to do race announcements.

See you next year!

When asked to recruit models for two photo shoots for The Viera Company, finding some athletic, adventurous friends to cycle at sunrise and run at sunset was easy.

We can't wait to see where these amazing photos end up- billboards? magazines? brochures?

In February of 2025, we were delighted to assist with providing event management for 28 North Gastropub's annual Gastropalooza fundraiser.

One attendee said, "The event was fantastic! Great selection of food and beverages, and the music was wonderful. Of course, the Chef Competition was exciting and fun to watch. Looking forward to next year."

Supporting the philanthropic efforts of this event, with proceeds benefiting Children's Hunger Project and Hospitality Life, made the amazing night that much sweeter!
