Community

I started my career in experiential marketing and have worked with hundreds of the world's biggest brands to produce their conferences, town halls, hackathons, parties, and events.

This was the baseline for how I got started in Product and tech.

I run events and experiences the way a Product Manager builds a user experience end to end.

Some of my favorite experiences I've produced and run:

• Created VR World - the largest immersive mixed reality experience in N America (12 K sq ft)
  
• Concept store for LINE App in Times Square — later turned into North America's flagship store
• Numerous SXSW activations
• Activations at music festivals including Gov Ball, Electric Zoo,...
• Pop-up shop for Intel
• Hackathons for NASA, Dwolla, ...
  
• Samsung VIP Lounge
  
• NFT NYC kick-off party
• Barbie-themed dinner party
• ...and multiple Mac & Cheese bake-off competitions
  

Events are very much how I connect with others IRL.

I host a monthly series called Founder + Operators. It's a community of founders and people working behind the scenes to make it happen. 

I also frequently host curated events: talks/ panels, parties, happy hours, and dinners. 

Get on the list and get notified about future events.
