My impact spans over 90+ races in the past decade, where I've held pivotal positions, showcasing expertise as a technical official, technical director, and advisor for various distance-running events. ~30+ Races as Race Director ~45+ Races as Route In-Charge ~10+ Races as Race Advisor My experience lies mainly in the fields of events, product design & consumer behavior. Having also personally delved into the fields of marketing, training, and learning & development, gives me an added edge when it comes to understanding people and dealing with them in various solutions. An expert at providing customized solutions, I have gone through acquiring a wide range of experience, across a cross-section of industries. Not only have I interacted with company heads to create brand identities that strengthen the overall brand image, but I have also worked closely with IT heads to develop products to increase revenue, customer experience, and marketing automation, and offer multiple support channels. I like to keep things simple and believe in arriving at resolutions rather than thinking about problems. I love to contribute in a positive way and would be happy to help a lot of people achieve their goals because I believe that's the best way to achieve my own goal.
