The BMPR (Business, Media, Public Relations)

Co-founded an open community in San Antonio, Texas, with a focus on social media technology and the adaptation of its uses in the business, media and public relations industries. The BMPR holds a monthly lunch event, the biggest in the region, where guests can learn more about the technologies and applications of social media, meet new people and connect with peers.

Highlights
  • Co-founded group after a three-person lunch turned into a 35-person lunch. At a time when people/professionals needed to connect in order to learn about social media together, we responded with what has become the biggest community of close friends and peers in San Antonio.
