The person
behind the portfolio

I've always been drawn to environments where energy, people, and experience come together. Growing up, I was surrounded by sports — and quickly became interested not just in the games, but in the atmosphere around them. What made those moments exciting? What made them unforgettable?

Those questions turned into a career. Through hands-on work with the Boston Red Sox, TD Garden, I Love Boston Sports, and the Sports Museum, I've found my place: building the moments that fans carry with them.

How I lead, and why it works

Communication First

Clear communication is the foundation of every smooth event. In fast-paced live settings, I make sure everyone understands their role and feels supported — keeping things organized, on track, and energized even when plans shift.

Adaptable by Design

Live events don't always go as planned — and that's okay. Staying calm, adjusting quickly, and helping the team refocus in the moment is what separates good events from great ones. I thrive in that space.

Hands-On Leadership

I believe in leading by example. I step in when needed, I help the team, and I set the tone through my own work rather than directions alone. Accountability isn't a policy — it's a habit.

People-First Mindset

At the end of the day, sports are about people. Whether it's a fan at a signing event or a guest in a premium suite, every interaction is an opportunity to create a positive memory. That's what I show up for.

What drives my work

01
Communication
Clear, effective communication — whether with clients, teams, or fans — builds trust and keeps everything moving smoothly.
02
Accountability
I take responsibility for my role in every event and make sure things are completed to a high standard. Dependability matters.
03
Teamwork
Great events come from strong collaboration. I value supporting teammates and contributing to a positive team culture.
04
Adaptability
Live events have taught me how important it is to adjust quickly and stay calm under pressure, ready for anything.
05
Fan Experience
Every interaction matters. I prioritize creating positive, memorable moments for every guest or fan I work with.
06
Growth
I'm always looking for ways to improve. I value feedback and continuous growth both professionally and personally.
