    I ran the 1500 alumni member CCNEO. Our goal is to connect recent and long time graduates to each other.

We cover, education, culture, economics, technology, and medicine. We are always looking for world-class speakers. We also help current and prospective students connect to both Cleveland/NEO and Cornell.

We were successful in helping many of them land financing. I was nominated for an E&Y Entrepreneur in 2004 for these efforts.

    I am founding this group to connect with the narrow group of us, that either are training for an event or recovering from and injury and plan to run an event.

I am currently ranked 98 in the world and 28 in the us in my age group. My goal for this group is to get like minded people sharing their victories, defeats and strategies to succeed in our deal world and compete in these challenging events. Please join my/our group. If this takes off we could discuss meeting at ACG Intergrowth events or other regional events.
