Conceptualized, launched, and directed operations of the U.S. Open of Mountain Biking - an annual downhill and slalom mountain bike event offering the largest cash purse in North America. 

During it's tenure (2003-2011), the U.S. Open was recognized as the premier North American event in its category attracting an international field of competitors including aspiring professionals, World Cup veterans, and World Champions. 

​In December 2016, rights to the U.S. Open of Mountain Biking were sold and the iconic event is making a triumphant return in May of 2017.
