I am a recent graduate of the University of Central Florida's new Themed Experience Master's program. In 2019 I graduated from UCF with degrees in Entertainment Management and Hospitality Management, specializing in Theme Park and Attraction Management. My background in theme park entertainment operations includes many roles (character performing, operations, and entertainment admin/stage management) in both regional theme parks and major destination parks. Looking to the future, I aspire to become a Show Producer and utilize my passion for show writing to tell immersive stories to Guests from all around the world.
From 2016 to 2022 I celebrated the holidays all year long as a Cast Member on the Holiday Services Decorating Team at the Walt Disney World Resort. This group is responsible for the planning, fabrication, installation, and strike of all holiday décor and props for the Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts, Disney Cruise Line, and east coast Disney Vacation Club properties. In this role I had the wonderful opportunity to collaborate with fellow Cast Members, Art Directors, and a world-class creative leadership team to design décor packages that enhance iconic Disney Parks locations for each holiday season. A highlight of my time on this team was working as one of the lead Decorators for the 2019 re-design of the holiday décor package for Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park. I began an IP Management internship at Universal Creative in May 2022 and joined the Universal Creative Studio team as an Assistant Manager of Intellectual Property in December 2022. Currently, I support multiple project teams in the design and production of major theme park projects around the globe. In this role, I manage the IP approval process for show elements via quick and effective communication with intellectual property partners and ensure the timely communication of IP notes to all members of the project team. links to media |
