With six years of experience in the arts education field, I am passionate about engaging diverse communities through music and culture. As the Booking Manager at War Memorial and Performing Arts Center, I provide professional-level management in the planning, estimating, contracting, and administration of theatrical productions and events produced in the facilities. I work with a team of dedicated professionals to ensure the successful execution and delivery of high-quality and diverse programming that reflects the mission and vision of the organization.Previously, I was the Community Engagement Manager at SFJAZZ, where I coordinated and executed events that showcased the rich history and diversity of jazz, such as artist residencies, workshops, lectures, and concerts. I also developed and maintained relationships with various stakeholders, such as artists, educators, sponsors, and community organizations, to promote and support the mission and vision of SFJAZZ. Some of my core competencies include event planning, relationship development, community engagement, and communication. I am always eager to learn new things, collaborate with others, and explore new ways to connect with audiences and celebrate the arts. I believe that art is a powerful and universal language that can inspire, educate, and empower people of all backgrounds and ages.
