2011 Hispanic Marketing Symposium

In March of 2011 I was contacted by Anjanette Gauteir of the Hispanic Marketing Council to ask if I would be interested in serving on the planning committee for the 2011 Hispanic Marketing Symposium. I accepted and was honored to serve on the committee with some truly fantastic people. The Symposium was attended by nearly 400 people on May 10th, 2011 at the Four Seasons. The speakers included Texas Secretary of State, Hope Andrade, as well as speakers from Chevy, Wal-Mart and Latinworks.

One of my jobs on the committee was to create the 2011 logo design, and my concept was used to create the final version.

In February of 2011 I was contacted by Jeff Musson of Maple Leaf Digital Lounge, out of Toronto, Canada. Jeff needed help setting up a flash mob to promote the Maple Leaf Digital Lounge SXSW party and so I orchestrated, promoted and arranged nearly 300 participants to don MLDL branded t-shirts (each emblazoned with a Q-Code that linked to the MLDL website) and freeze for 4 minutes outside the Austin Convention Center on Saturday morning. The video of this mob can be viewed here. You can see me at the 2:41 mark.
