Events Director — Always Wear Your Seatbelt Foundation

My job responsibilities: Preparations leading up to the organization’s fund raiser events. Engage new prospective sponsors. Involvement with other similar organizations in the community.

Why I joined the Coalition: The Coalition shares similar messaging and initiatives for the community as AWYS.

Hobbies or areas of interest outside of work: I am a volunteer member of the AWYS Board of Directors. Outside of my involvement with AWYS, my main line of work is as the Business Development Executive for OneDigital in Orlando. Outside of work I am member of a number of local organizations. As a hobby I enjoy getting out and playing golf and fishing.

What has changed most about driving from the time you were a teenager to now? For myself personally I would say that I pay a lot closer attention to not only safety but general courtesies of the road which can play hand in hand. For example, being conscious of the left passing lane on the interstate.

The one tip I would give any new teen driver would be: From our foundation, Always Wear Your Seatbelt.
