The Journey Continues - Looking For Sponsorship

Well it has been a really stressful last couple of weeks, but finally I feel some relief.

It is official, I no longer work for Freedom Prosthetics. Anyone trying to get a hold of me via cell, my number has changed. For now the best way to communicate with me would be via email.

As you could tell from my last blog I was having some difficulty making some tough decisions, my career choice being the main topic. I have decided that while I feel I definitely have a niche that can be used in the prosthetic field...that sales isn't exactly my thing. Freedom is a great company, I will always be appreciative of what I have learned there. I wish them the best of luck in the future. We have had a very amicable parting. I know they wish the best for me as well.

I do think marketing, advocacy and promotion are definitely some avenues that I could pursue in the future, but sales is just so...well I just don't think I have the personality for it.

So what I'm gonna do for now is have some fun. The Houston Rodeo is coming up and starting this Thursday I will be back driving a pedicab. What I am mainly going to do is try to relax and enjoy life for a while.

I also have some athletic events coming up. I will be posting a calendar with the things I am going to be competing in. I have some 5k's, bike rides and a triathlon all taking place in the next few months.


I'm always looking for sponsorship on many different levels.
If you would like to help promote amputee awareness and get your company name out there please contact me. I can arrange a couple of different types of promotion. Things ranging from putting a company link/logo on this blog site to wearing your business name on an athletic jersey or piece of gear. Even though I am not usually the first guy...people seem to usually notice me during an event. It's almost like I am different that the other participants or something???...lol

The other thing that will be occupying a lot of my time is releasing more videos. I have the rest of the amputee cycling series I have been chomping at the bit to complete. I also have a video I want to do about running. I got some other friends I want to interview as well. I've just been waiting for some nice weather so I can get back out and shoot some more.

Final note...Really special thanks for those that I have had to opportunity to meet out in the field this last year while here in Houston. Gonna miss you.
