What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead experiential event-production, or installation projects where I can connect creative vision with buildable execution, collaborate with clients and vendors, and deliver strong guest experiences.

With 20+ years of experience managing what gets built, and giving design direction the one through line from TV/Commercial production, large-scale events, retail transformations, and high-end residential project management is turning ambitious design into a well managed, built, functional space. Encompassing overlay, signage, fabrication, construction, installation and the overall look and feel while coordinating the vendors and crews who bring it to life.

Through freelance event production, set decoration, and design work, I've delivered experiential activations for large corporations. I take projects from concept boards and floor plans through sourcing, fabrication, load-in, installation, and on-site execution.

I understand the why behind a space, what's required to build it, and the how of getting it installed with a design eye to know when the finished environment is actually right, not simply complete.
