Join Elusive1 & Evie as they welcome Michael Esordi & Diana Smith. Michael is the founder and President of Believe It Tour and Bigfoot Surplus and is the creative force behind conceptualizing and planning the company’s events, extensive yearly expeditions, and unique merchandise line. Michael is a native of Michigan and was formally trained in design at the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design on the east coast. In 2008 Michael developed a new business when he founded Believe It Tour as a way to bring diverse groups of people together to reconnect with their childhood beliefs through events, educational programs, and outreach projects. Diana is Vice President of Believe It Tour and when the team is on an adventure she's the one handling the complex trip logistics and keeping everything on track. However, on a daily basis she’s responsible for business development and daily operations for Believe It Tour. Diana's background is a diverse one as she's been in both the science and creative worlds. As a classically trained scientist she's been a Global Director of Regulatory Affairs and Quality Systems for top medical device companies in California and New York. She later leveraged this experience when she founded a consulting firm that worked with established and start-up medical device and pharmaceutical companies to bring new technology to market. She was also co-founder and CFO of an award winning commercial photography studio in Southern California. From the time she was little, Diana loved to read and was fascinated with tales of adventure and people that explored new places. She was also captivated with the mythology and folklore tales of different cultures and what was behind the creation of the tales. She was especially interested in folklore that dealt with mysterious creatures and ghostly specters. Even though she's an adult now, Diana's curiosity about mysterious things, her interest in cultural tales, and her love of adventure a great fit with the Tour.
