In 2020, I proudly announced the establishment of Teague Theatrical Group, a purpose-built organization dedicated to fostering collaboration, support, and empowerment in the future of storytelling. Officially launched in 2022, Teague Theatrical Group pursues a holistic approach to storytelling, including the financial aspects of the distribution of proceeds, monetization cycles, lifetime value, and ancillary activities of entertainment assets.I am a member of the Board of Directors at The Drama League, where I serve on the Executive Committee (Treasurer), Finance Committee (Chair), and Awards Committee (2023 Chair). I enjoy volunteering my time for various entertainment industry causes. Highlights include Broadway Bets, the annual poker tournament benefit for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids (Host Committee); The Shubert Organization’s Broadway Technology Accelerator (Cohort Mentor); and the NYC Economic Development Corporation’s Future of Performance Venues roundtable (Subject Matter Expert).I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Arts Management (Indiana University) and a certificate in Business and Government Affairs (Georgetown University). I am a certified member of the Association of Theatrical Press Agents and Managers (ATPAM). I reside in New York City with my wife, Liesl Lar, our daughter, and dog, Itzli. I'm an optimist!
