Prior to my current public speaking and concert management roles, I had a career as a NASCAR pit crew member. Both experiences submerge one into the business and the time away from home exceeds the time at home. Traveling is a major part of getting the jobs done- and not just traveling but traveling right.

The lessons learned working in these industries can train someone to work with much of the general public. Take away: 1. Organizing travel for a large group of people. 2.

Scaling million-dollar teams & musicians to the family vacation. Host Week 2024 Landin
