Jim Dorsey

CAO l Chief Adventure Officer | Travel Writer, Editor & Publisher

I spent 31 years in the apparel industry specializing in Marketing, Business Development, Account Management and Client/Vendor relations.

During that time I had the good fortune to work with a wide variety of brands, companies, museums and non-profits including The North Face, Timberland, Patagonia, Esprit, GAP, Banana Republic, Malibu Shirts, LACMA, MOMA, MOCA, Panavision, The Cousteau Society, ONE.org, American Rivers, Oceana, Rails-to-Trails and many more.

My intensely personal and professional approach to Account Management and Business Development was essential to opening, growing and maintaining long term relationships with hundreds of clients and industry partners throughout the world. Now I bring these skills to connect and work with adventure companies, travel partners and food vendors to write articles, stories and reviews about the most beautiful places we discover.

After attending film school I took a sharp turn to built my career as a Product Manager working for various tech, telecommunications and media companies. Product Management is a fascinating profession and a wonderful way to experience life. just like travel. 

Combining these two passions I started Playground Earth as an online travel store, pivoted with Jim to build a clothing line and eventually a travel publication and adventure finder.
