Message

At FASHION X AUSTIN, I managed backstage production logistics for Texas Fashion Week, coordinating staffing, schedules, model flow, and wardrobe transitions against time-sensitive run-of-show requirements.

At DELINEATIONS, INC., I planned company events and corporate mixers with the local builders association, coordinating vendors, schedules, logistics, and on-site needs. I also coordinated event logistics from promotion through execution and post-event evaluation.

At KELLEY DESIGN GROUP, I coordinate residential design projects from inquiry through permitting and serve as a primary client contact. I led implementation of PandaDoc and designed a standardized client-intake process.

I also created, hosted, and produced the Uncomfortable Faith Podcast, and developed branded merchandise and digital products for Enjoy the Sass & Creator Commerce.
