Producing

I’ve project managed over 100 storytelling and comedy events in NYC, Washington DC, and online. These programs are designed to bring together emerging and established creatives, promote their work, and bring in new audiences to the venues. I also teach writing workshops and design the lesson plan around the organization’s needs. You can learn more about my workshops here.

Producing work includes:

  • Curating lineups

  • Booking artists

  • Managing social media marketing and designing graphics (yes, I know my way around Canva!)

  • Liaising with venues

  • Hosting duties and managing day-of-show production.
