About Me
I am a creator, director and producer with ten years of experience producing live, original
shows, productions and events. Self-motivated, I transformed a grass roots burlesque show
into a theater company with an extensive portfolio of original works. I have worked with a
wide variety of performers, venues and co producers to develop a reputation in the
entertainment industry that people have come to know and trust.
In Key West, I am known for my creative vision. I produce grand scale events and shows on
a limited budget that are as entertaining as large budget productions. My creations have
become a popular element of Key West’s rich arts and culture scene and a staple in tourist
based entertainment, in a city known for its live shows and performers.
Summery of Skills
Over the past ten years I have been the head creator, stage director, artistic and
executive producer, script writer, choreographer, casting director, costuming designer, set
designer, basic lighting designer and music editor for the following shows and productions.
I have successfully written numerous grants, launched lucrative fundraising and advertising
campaigns, arranged all press and national advertising, handled all public relations
including writing press releases and social media updates, written performer and venue
contracts and arranged travel and housing for out of town guests.
Additional skills include graphic design, web design and basic video editing.
