Bio
Business Strategy
Brian is an incredible leader, which is evidenced by the work he put into establishing an Ohio State alumni club in Knoxville, TN. I was an alumni relations representative for Brian's territory and had the pleasure of working closely with him to develop the organization. Brian was instrumental in recruiting leaders, communicate policies/practices, event planning, and organizing all of the administrative tasks that the job entailed. Within its first year of existence the club reached the highest recognition level, and continues to be successful. He is very personable as well, and often stopped by in Columbus to further build our professional rapport. I'm grateful for the time I got to work with Brian, and am proud of the great accomplishments he has done, and continues to do, on behalf of Ohio State.
