Greenville, MS
I live in a little town outside of Greenville, MS situated on a lovely little creek. Boating is one of my favorite things to do here in the MS Delta. When I'm not on the water, I'm working. My real passion is marketing and advertising. With a proven track record of increasing sales volume over 100%, consistently putting up a positive EBITDA and ranking among the top one third in my corporation for profitability. My career path has taken me through the non-profit sector where I spearheaded a multi-million dollar campaign to build a new catholic high school in a rural Delta town. Currently, I am working with the same school on another campaign to consolidate its elementary and high schools onto one campus. I have produced national television and radio commercials, owned my own newspaper and even sold cable tv subscriptions door-to-door - and worked as a DJ in college. Charity work includes the Steve Azar Celebrity Golf and Charity event held annually in June in Greenville, MS. The three day golf event brings celebs and pro golfers from around the country to our small town to raise money for the arts, music and children in need.
