What I'm looking for

I’m looking for opportunities to architect better systems, build innovative tech solutions, and push the boundaries of live entertainment.

At Wackford Group, I built a creative consultancy that translates cultural insight and operational friction into brand concepts, guest experiences, and implementation plans. I develop proposals spanning immersive hospitality, retail operations, membership models, product strategy, and brand positioning.

For Sacramento Pride with Sacramento LGBT Community Center, I led operational planning and on-site execution for an event serving 15,000+ attendees. At Another Planet Entertainment, I direct exterior guest-flow operations and support live production; I also coordinated stage logistics for multi-day productions at Strauss Festival of Elk Grove, Inc.
