Dynamic creative professional specializing in event production and design.
What I'm looking for
I am a dynamic creative professional with a diverse background in event production, nightlife, and design. I have spearheaded large-scale events, worked as a showrunner, and owned both a successful club and gallery in Miami, allowing me to curate immersive experiences that blend art, culture, and entertainment.
Now, as a design consultant, I specialize in fashion, art, interior, and event design, bringing a refined aesthetic and strategic vision to every project I take on. My experience as a bar manager and co-owner has equipped me with the skills to manage teams effectively and ensure seamless operations in high-energy environments.
