WHAT INSPIRED YOUR CAREER AS AN EVENT PRODUCTION MANAGER?

I love solving jigsaw puzzles, and to me, production is like one giant puzzle. Figuring out logistics is fun, so production seemed like the perfect fit for me!

WHAT’S THE MOST MEMORABLE EVENT YOU’VE WORKED ON AT EVENTS BY RHC?

We organized Hip Hop’s 50th anniversary party at Hall des Lumières. Sponsored by Hennesy, it featured a lineup of guest DJs and ended with a performance by Nas. It was amazing to see so many key players in hip hop celebrating together in one room.

SHARE A PERSONAL MANTRA OR MOTTO THAT GUIDES YOU IN YOUR EVENT PRODUCTION JOURNEY.

Precision in planning, excellence in execution.”

WHAT’S ONE THING YOU WISH PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT EVENT PRODUCTION?

It’s a lot of problem-solving onsite. No matter how much planning you do, there are always curveballs that need fixing on the fly.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE DISH, AND WHY?

I love our Smoked Salmon Macaron canapé from a previous menu. It’s a black & white macaron with smoked salmon, cream cheese, everything bagel seasoning, & a cucumber slice. It’s the perfect mix of salty & sweet and represents NYC culture to me!

IF YOU COULD INVITE THREE FAMOUS PEOPLE (LIVING OR DECEASED) TO A DINNER PARTY YOU’RE PRODUCING, WHO WOULD THEY BE?

All the Real Housewives of New York!
