I’m a producer and operations specialist working across experiential events, immersive activations, live productions, and commercial environments.

I specialise in the operational side of production: coordinating logistics, schedules, suppliers, staffing, and on-site delivery to ensure complex projects run smoothly from planning through execution.

My background in hospitality gave me a strong foundation in team leadership, commercial operations, and high-pressure delivery. Managing budgets, suppliers, staffing, and guest experience in fast-paced environments taught me how to stay calm under pressure, solve problems quickly, and keep operations moving efficiently. Skills I now bring into experiential production and live events.

I’ve worked across multi-venue programmes, public-facing events, luxury hospitality environments, and international projects requiring close coordination across production teams, partners, suppliers, and stakeholders.

Having lived and worked across Switzerland, Portugal, Germany, and the UK, I’m comfortable adapting quickly to new teams, industries, and cross-cultural environments.

Alongside production work, I continue developing skills across digital marketing and workflow optimisation, always looking for ways to improve efficiency.

If you’re looking for someone who can bring structure and fun to projects, I’d love to connect.
