American Hole 'n One is a promotions company that provides insured prize coverage (games of skill or chance where the prize is not guaranteed) for our clients. Although golf is a large part of our business, other clients also include auto dealers, radio and TV stations, casinos, nightclubs and bars, home builders, banks, agencies, retail stores, professional and semi-professional teams, and collegiate schools.

I have worked for American Hole 'n One since 2006. Other companies I have worked for include the Walt Disney Company, the Colonial Center in Columbia, SC (a Global-Spectrum owned facility), the Bowie Baysox (AA minor league baseball team), and the Baltimore Ravens.

Born and raised in Maryland, I am a HUGE Redskins, Orioles, and Terps fan. I currently reside in Atlanta, GA.

Greatest Sports Moment (to date): Going to Super Bowl 42 in Phoenix where I was fortunate enough to attend several pre/post game parties and have awesome seats to the game. Thanks Richard!!!
