BACKGROUND
Southbound 4 was founded in Greenville, S.C. in the summer of 2019. Prior to its inception (2004 - 2019), I helped create and lead the Resorts, Destinations and Real Estate Division of Buffalo Agency.
One of the industry's leading integrated marketing firms, my key account partnerships included Pinehurst Resort, Destination Kohler, PGA National Resort and Spa, PGA Golf Club, The Sea Pines Resort, Casa de Campo, Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, The Concession Residences, Desert Highlands, Cordillera Ranch and Sailfish Point.
Over the past 20 years I've held seats on numerous boards, attended hundreds of trade shows, and worked closely with the World Golf Foundation, USGA and PGA of America to help grow the game while broadening its impact.
