“I had the pleasure of meeting Sharon during the initial planning stages of the Outside Festival in Denver, CO= (Sep 2023) Sharon and her team had ambitious sponsorship sales goals for their first year. However, under her leadership - they were successful! As I worked more closely with Sharon, it became clear that her sales expertise was unparalleled for IRL and Media sales. Her dedication, tenacity, and deep knowledge led the festival to a resounding sales success, and we were all thoroughly impressed by her contributions. Sharon, you are a true legend, and I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with you.”
