Live Event Production
Artist / Talent Relations for Festivals, Concerts & Events
ABOUT ME
Steady. Clear. Excellence in Execution.
This is my internal fabric, my DNA. Its what landed me BMG Music's coveted college rep internship at Howard University which turned into an epic 20+ year career. I've covered every incredible corner of the music industry, from street teams to live event production to big box account sales (Target, Best Buy, Wal-Mart).
My focus is Live Event Production; Specializing in Artist Relations, Operations, and Logistics for Festivals, Concerts & Events.
I will bring immediate value to a company looking for an Event Producer or Artist / Talent Relations Director for their next festival, concert or event.
I have produced over 100+ live events for over 100+ artists, including local artists, A-list and international super-stars. Including handling artist relations, budgets, scheduling, contracts, travel & accommodations, transportation and day of on-site management.
I have successfully worked in a remote position from Chicago for the past 7 years and am no stranger to bi-coastal travel.
Whether as a consultant, contractor, or employee, let's talk about how I can help your next event be your best one yet!
Travel
I enjoy experiencing people & culture for personal growth and a true global appreciation of life.
Movies
Whether a documentary, historical, comedy, or social justice focused - I enjoy the story tellers perspective and the art of how they convey their story.
Sports
Sundays are for football. The other days are for coaching my son's baseball team and watching him play football. I'm also a dance & cheer dad but oddly enough am limited to transpo services only.
Disney Parks
I'm surprised by this one too. But it incorporates travel, movies, sports (ESPN) - and I have kids. So it all works out.
