As President of Arena Stuart Rentals (ASR), I oversee the sales, operations, and financial functions of the West Coast hub of the publicly-traded, London-based Arena Group plc, an international events solution company. Prior to my role at ASR, I served as President/CEO and co-owner of Stuart Event Rentals, a Top 25 National event rental company that increased sales 20x through both organic growth and acquisition from 2003 – 2020 and from 12 to 170 employees during the same period. The Company serves many technology, non-profit and educational entities including Google, Intel, Intuit, Tesla, Cisco, Stanford University and University of California, Berkeley.Having managed a closely held and now public company through cycles from the Great Recession through the booming 2010s, and now through COVID-19, I continuously pull from a wide-range of professional experiences. I learned large company practices while serving as a manager with KPMG Consulting's Technology Strategy management consulting group, where I supervised and staffed projects for companies including Chevron, Boeing, Verizon, Brocade and Microsoft. I also leverage my experience as a litigator in Philadelphia during the 90’s before obtaining my MBA from the University of Chicago.I live in the Bay Area with my amazing wife and three teenage children.

Listed skills include Corporate Events, Event Management, Event Planning, Trade Shows, and 7 others.
