He has also had roles with Cablevision in the Hudson Valley region and as director of public relations, sports properties, for Madison Square Garden. For ten years, he worked at Middleton & Gendron Brand Communications in New York City, a leading travel and hospitality focused PR agency where he became chief operating officer and directed account teams for global hospitality clients.
