🎬 Production & Tour Coordinator | Entertainment Insurance Broker | Logistics & Risk Specialist for Live Events and Artists
With over a decade of experience at the intersection of live entertainment and risk management, I specialize in both coordinating high-profile productions and brokering tailored insurance solutions for the entertainment industry.
From touring globally with artists like Imagine Dragons, Janet Jackson, Nas, and Neil Young, to managing production logistics for large-scale festivals such as Okeechobee Music Festival and Phish’s MagnaBall, I’ve overseen every detail—from artist accommodations and backstage operations to vendor timelines and transportation. My ability to manage complex, high-stakes events has made me a trusted point of contact for artists, managers, venues, and crews alike.
Now, as a licensed property & casualty insurance broker at Higginbotham, I’ve expanded my expertise to protecting the very productions I once helped run. I help clients navigate entertainment-specific coverages, ensuring contractual compliance and peace of mind for creative teams, venues, and corporate partners.
Whether I’m coordinating a world tour, negotiating contracts, managing budgets, or ensuring a policy protects a multimillion-dollar production, I bring a grounded, solutions-focused approach that balances creativity with operational discipline.
