I'm an experienced event producer and project manager, used to adapting on the fly. I spent years working at TheTimesCenter, working with internal event producers and outside clients. I was involved in every aspect of the operations of the venue, from managing front of house to assisting with sales and marketing. In 2019, I joined the NYT Events team to support the production of the TimesTalks series throughout NYC. I had the pleasure of working on programs featuring big names like Marc Jacobs, The Wu-Tang Clan, Renee Zellweger, Lena Waithe, The Jonas Brothers, and Timothee Chalamet.
I then moved on to work with the department more broadly, including our shift to virtual programming in 2020. This became a Program Manager role, working at the intersection of production, project management, and business management. I worked on a number of brand events for NYT including internal events, a subscriber growth series, a book club concept sponsored by Chanel, and Dealbook programs in DC and NY.
In 2022, I worked alongside the senior producer, Care of Chan, and Superfly to bring the New York Times Food Festival to life. We brought some of the greatest minds in food to our stage at Damrosch Park including Ina Garten, Padma Lakshmi, Danny Meyer, Kwame Onwuachi, Rick MartÍnez and the cast and creators of FX’s “The Bear.” Midway through the day, we hosted a sparkling wine workshop with Chief Wine Critic Director, Eric Asimov and Director, Author, and Comedian and creator of Las Jaras Wines Eric Wareheim. We were joined by vendors from some of the best restaurants in New York City, including Bonnie’s, Sofreh, Aunts et Uncles, Ras Plant Based, Ernesto’s, and Dhamaka.
I’ve been working freelance since last March, doing event production and talent management for events including Global Citizen summits, YouTube Brandcast, The Tribeca Festival, The Atlantic Festival, and corporate retreats for Marco Experiences.
