New York City Metropolitan Area

As the Director of Community Outreach and Development I was tasked with the experience design and execution of community oriented initiatives. In conjunction with a small team, I facilitated “Dance-Mart” by pursuing and acquiring sponsorships which allowed us to provide free groceries to struggling NYC dancers who dance full or part time professionally and are historically underpaid, underserved, and unprotected by traditional safety nets. It was under the tutelage of the more tenured directors that I was able to develop my sense of Experience Design and come to learn that I was quite fit for such a task. It soon became a passion of mine, which led me into the arts!

As a Department Manager I was tasked with the management of the displays, keeping track of warehouse stock to determine ordering needs, organising both warehouse "bins" and consumer-facing shelves, as well as leading a small team to most effectively delegate and carry out our responsibilities. In this role I was able to delve into what became a passion for team development, and applying innovative solutions and approaches in a fast-paced corporate environment.

I was introduced to the inner workings of band management and booking by Mr. Jennings. I worked up from position of bus boy, to expo, to grill cook, to sous, to interim head chef while cooking for Fat Matts. I was able to develop a sense for kitchen management, large scale food production, and the 80/20 approach to prioritising efficacy over perfection while still achieving stellar results.
