Blue Jay Racing is a student-run design team open to all undergraduate students. The program was founded in 2004. The team competes annually in three international events put on by the Society of Automotive Engineers. Students design, build, and race a single seat off-road vehicle against a total of ~200 teams representing 14 nations and nearly 4,000 young engineers. The award-winning program offers student engineers an educational experience that goes beyond what the classroom can offer. Aside from the technical knowledge gained, the team-based skills learned through such a rigorous endeavor develops leaders well prepared to enter industry and academia. At each competition the team competes in four of six dynamic events (Acceleration, Maneuverability, Rock Crawl, Suspension and Traction, Hill Climb and Sled Pull) as well as three static events (a sales presentation, design presentations and a cost report). To cap off the competition, the team will also race in a grueling four-hour endurance race. Team members learn as much at competition as from designing and building their vehicle throughout the rest of the year. In addition to their own learning it is also important to the team that all members participate. At competition the team is always working, whether repairing their vehicle or planning and preparing for the next days events. With so much to do and so little time every member contributes to the teams success.

I founded Catapult For Change to save you time by offering you surefire success due to my deep experience in business transformations, turnarounds, and growth strategies. Ill guide you to excel in the C-Suite, fostering a personal leadership exploration that uplifts both you and your organization.

I firmly believe in the inherent greatness within each individual; however, obstacles occasionally hinder our progress. Our mission is to guide individuals and teams in overcoming these hurdles through a comprehensive approach to problem-solving and personal growth. This extends to our dedicated support for CEOs and C-Suite leaders, fostering the development of skills and talents that enable them to excel in their roles with both grace and joy. My personal purpose is to enhance the quality of life for both people and the planet, and Catapult For Change serves as my conduit to do this. Operating as a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC), Catapult For Change distinguishes itself by not only functioning similarly to an S Corp or an LLC but also by incorporating a public benefit element. Based in Colorado, Catapult For Change aligns with the PBC criteria by contributing to the philanthropic endeavors of Water For People - an organization I formerly led. Water For People operates globally across nine countries in Latin America, Asia, and Africa, addressing the urgent global water crisis and empowering communities with sustainable access to clean water and sanitation services, with the commitment of Everyone, Forever. Catapult For Change pledges annual donations to support Water For Peoples mission. As a PBC, our commitment to this cause is transparently showcased in our mandatory annual impact report, a requirement for all PBCs filed in the State of Colorado.
