What working in Sports taught me!

From 2004 until 2012 I was lucky enough to work in both the Canadian Football League and Major League Soccer. The industry provided some of the best years of my life and set me up for future success in the Travel Industry

  1. The people you meet in these industries are stars. You will not find a harder working group of people. You will be driven to succeed just by walking into the office every morning.
  2. The experiences are lifelong stories from being around Heisman trophy winners such as Ricky Williams or Eric Crouch or playing soccer with Kings of Leon.
  3. You will visit many different cities and experience cultures. Road trips with professional sports teams really open your eye to just how lucky you are to be in that kind of environment.
  4. You are surrounded by people who all they have done is be the best possible version of themselves.
  5. It taught me that you always have to reinvent yourself and keep up with current trends and never be complacent.

With COVID 19 here it is a perfect time to reflect on your past to help you grow for the future.
