I've worked as full time, adjunct staff, as a freelancer and consultant. My work behind the scenes is driven to insure the success, safety, access and enjoyment of the event. I anticipate the needs of all the 'players'-presenters, performers and audience. I bring this in equal measure to small and large scale events. My agility and experience have me at the ready as a 'Go To' hire. Download Events Resume.

Special
The coordination of unique events often involves people who have not worked together before. In working for non-profits and start-ups I facilitate the communication between participating stakeholders to reach the event's objective.
One-time and annual events sponsored by organizations are often for fundraising and public relations. The tone and quality of the event needs to support those outcomes with positive 'measurables'.
The Wreckers Ball: Boston Ballet held a wildly creative and fun PR and fundraising ball located in their soon-to-be demolished building. This involved coordinating everything from procuring and installing a small 'Caterpillar' in the lobby, to lighting each room on the four floors with a unique look. These ideas were generated by an energetic board committee and executed by Production staff.
One Hot Date: multi-venue and event fundraiser for a small, ambitious art school in the Berkshires. As a freelancer I produced logistics including PR, press releases, volunteer coordination and tech on the night of the event. The 'story' of the event itself, 'Dinner and a Movie', helped draw a record crowd for for record fund raising revenues.
