What I'm looking for

I seek freelance or permanent roles where I can lead event production, artist liaison, and bespoke wedding projects with creative autonomy, collaborative teams, and opportunities to grow venue strategy and audience engagement.

I am a freelance Event, Wedding & Production Manager and Artist Liaison with a proven track record delivering high-profile festivals, private events, and bespoke weddings across Ireland since 2017.

I act as primary client contact from initial inquiry to post-event review, leading bespoke wedding design, supplier coordination, and on-site operations for large guest accommodations. I also provide strategic consultancy to venue management on business development and client experience.

As a freelance production and stage manager I have overseen large-scale events and festival operations, provided artist liaison services for major festivals and speaker events, and handled technical requirements, schedules, and backstage logistics for high-profile talent.

I co-direct a community theatre, lead productions and fundraising, and bring additional expertise as a qualified Health & Wellness Practitioner, combining creativity, logistics, and care-focused guest services in every event I deliver.
