David T. Stevens (LITN)

As outlined in my background, I have an excellent record in management, public relations, promotional activities, large events, sales, tours, and marketing. Also extensive hands on media experience in TV, Radio, Print, and Social Media. In addition, I believe my outstanding people skills, strong work ethic, organizational abilities, attention to detail, and knowledge of promotional procedures would be of great benefit to any organization. I have toured with AT&T, DirectTV, Principal Financial Group, MTV, mtvU, Pfizer, NASCAR/Nextel, Verizon, and Iomega.

I learn new things quickly, and share my passion for my work with those around me. I feel that my experience, background and strong work ethic set me apart.

David T. Stevens (LITN)’s Specialties:

I have worked with "A" list celebs to "Z" listers. They are all the same and I never get star struck. Making things happen when no one else thinks they can, or have tried and failed is where I excel. Last minute changes and making something from nothing is where I do my best work.

Group X Instructor (24Cycle)

24 Hour Fitness

(Privately Held; Health, Wellness and Fitness industry)

March 2008 — Present (1 year 9 months)

I teach 24Cycle commonly reffered to as "spin" 2 days a week.

Mondays and Wednesday 7:30pm @ San Jose Super Sport

If you have ever been to a "spin" class this will be a refreshing change. The principles of spin have shown to cause injuries and excessive wear and tear on your body. So 24Cycle is more like an indoor version of an outdoor bike ride. Another key difference is you will NEVER hear techno music in one of my classes. I look forward to seeing you there!
