Working with clients to develop event-driven-architecture and cloud native solutions.

I made a music festival! For the past 5 years, I've put on ToeJam, a music and art festival in the Hudson Valley. I've booked musicians and artists, built ticket sales processes, set up the festival location, coordinated guest amenities and needs, and even filled up the water coolers. All while managing a budget and charity donations at a semi-professional level. It's a labor of love <3

At Lagunitas, I had the chance to work first on local beer and music festivals, and coordinating all staff, resources, and (of course) beer that we needed at each event. I was eventually moved to the national event team where I was part of a team working on Lagunitas signature events like The Lagunitas Beer Circus and Pop Up Taproom Tour. I handled production company research, price negotiations, managed a team of 12-part time staffers, and moved a lot of kegs.

I was responsible for project management and production of creative campaigns within GMG's branded studio. Projects included written feature articles, branded video production, custom ad units, and large-scale event activations. I worked with the Creative Director to produce all aspects of content and events for clients like Puma, Porsche, Toyota, and 23 and Me. I worked closely with account management and client contacts to ensure projects and deliverables were on deadline and under budget. Tasks include: hosting kick off calls, contracting vendors and freelancers, building budget sheets, technical documentation and timelines, designing marketing materials, being present at production and event time, and completing project wrap up documentation.
