Love what you do, and you’ll never work a day in your life. I’ve always had that phrase burned into my mind. Over the last 20 years, following a couple failed marriages, the raising of 2 boys, and the successes, failures, and growth of 10 different businesses, I’ve learned a lot. This experience has all been poured into AAMP.

My goal here at AAMP Agency is to become an irrefutable force in Tour Operator, Adventure, and Destination Marketing. It was never enough for me to only build great websites or to create the best social content. I’ve always been fascinated by what drives a customer to make a purchase, and I truly wanted to understand the trials and tribulations of running a tour business. This curiosity led to the creation of Vegas Jeep Tours.

My team and I have learned a lot along the way. Most importantly, we’ve realized that while it’s good to keep the bookings flowing in and the phones ringing, these are only parts of the story. AAMP Agency has become so much more to me than “just another business”. I have found a world that makes me excited to wake up every morning and to do what I do. I know this is supposed to be my bio and not an elevator pitch, but I have drank the Kool-Aid over here. I am truly passionate about our agency, and I believe this passion is reflected in my team and in our efforts.

Outside of work, I love an old fashioned cocktail, am always down to grab some tacos or a burger, and am constantly listening to podcasts. I went to EDC for the first time this year, and it was a life-changing experience. I can’t wait to go back. As for the rest, well, who knows? That’s the best part. I have no idea what’s going to happen in the future, and that makes me pretty excited.
