What I'm looking for

I seek senior operations or consulting roles where I can lead event and beverage programs, improve processes, mentor teams, and drive profitable, high-quality guest experiences.

I am an experienced Event & Beverage Director and consultant who builds efficient, scalable operations for large festivals, brand activations, and multi-site events. I have led teams of up to 2,000 staff, managed $20M+ in sales, and delivered high-stakes projects like Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, and NFL Draft activations.

As founder of MP Event and Beverage Consulting, I partner with production companies, venues, and brands to design beverage programs, manage logistics, and oversee compliance and safety—generating millions in savings and dramatically increasing department revenue through process improvements.

I thrive under pressure, lead cross-functional teams, and consistently deliver flawless guest experiences from load-in to load-out while optimizing resources, vendor relationships, and profitability.
