stage managing experiences
serving as the liaison between the producer in the front of the house and the clients backstage.
dell tech world
this year, i got the opportunity to stage manage for the “women in technology” stage at worldwide streamed dell tech world. managing the stage flow was always the primary concern as a stage manager, but i also spent hours creating and compiling documents:
minute-to-minute show-flows
cues for projection and other media changes
comprehensive production schedules
creating and distributing schedules ensured that everyone from mike dell to the hundreds of crew members were in place at all times.
with the variety of presentations, it was my job to make sure the crew was in place to set-change efficiently between speakers and panels. this included an all japanese presentation, with clients who didn’t speak english!
ulta beauty
stage managing for ulta’s investor day was my first stage managing experience. while also being available to make rehearsal changes in powerpoints and notes, i took care of the stage come event day. event day responsibilities included:
directing the flow on and off the stage throughout each presentation
making sure the CEO and her team were where they needed to be
mic’ing up each speaker properly
institutional investor ranked ulta’s investor day #2 under nike, an accomplishment for both ulta beauty and our production team!
