Adam Rugel - 71Miles Founder
Adam started working in media at age 14, sitting shotgun in the “Music Machine” – WAVA/105.1’s giant radio boom box, pulled by a Chevy Van. Adam found his way online in 1995 when he landed at AOL in Tysons Corner, Virginia, just a few miles from his hometown of Reston. Adam eventually moved out to San Francisco with AOL Travel in 1998, where he managed AOL products with partners like Travelocity, WorldRes, Travel + Leisure magazine, and Six Flags. In 2002, Adam left AOL and co-founded Serotonin Productions, a video-production company specializing in travel videos and interactive projects like Bargain Travel Minute, Hostel Days, and Meet Your Match Online. Most recently, Adam was Director of Business Development for two Bay Area startups: first Audiofeast, then Odeo. As a traveler, Adam has been to far-flung places like Turkey, Cuba, and Russia, and he loves local jaunts to Bay Area spots like Carmel Valley, Bodega Bay, and Santa Cruz too.
