From private fundraisers to large-scale, sold-out cultural programming, employee engagement, and social events, I have 10+ years of experience producing hundreds of live events of nearly every kind.
I specialize in programs that empower audiences to broach, understand, and engage with complex topics. I have convened leading voices across the arts, higher education, government, and business for programs about climate change, sports, politics, public health, finance, big tech, fine art, cultural traditions, civil rights, current events, education, LGBTQIA+ rights, literature, entertainment, and more.
As a producer, I'm used to doing it all: from initial concept development to booking, scriptwriting, project management, team training, creative direction, content strategy, fundraising, budgeting, marketing, partnerships, and communications with stakeholders at all levels. I am fortunate to have worked with some of the world's top talent at iconic venues.
