About Steven

Production, operations, and the spaces in between.

I am a Texas-based event producer who has spent two decades helping complex live events move from idea to execution.

Professional path

Twenty years across planning, production, and live operations.

My work has spanned major sporting events, live entertainment, temporary builds, executive programs, campus events, public-facing projects, and international productions. Over time, my work expanded from venue and event management into national operations and independent production.

The work is intense, public, and collaborative. Each setting asks different questions, but every one depends on people communicating well and taking responsibility for what happens next.

Range

Different rooms. Different stakes. The same responsibility.

Major live environments

Working across high-level sporting events, arenas, entertainment programs, executive environments, festivals, and public-facing work.

Different places, different conditions

Projects across the United States and in Prague, Ireland, Poland, Brazil, Germany, and Australia, each requiring adaptation to new teams, requirements, and ways of working.

Operations at scale

Experience coordinating complex operations across multiple markets, teams, vendors, and moving parts.

Education

Communication, language, and social responsibility.

I earned a degree in Communication from Pepperdine University, with an English emphasis and a focus on Social Action and Justice. That foundation continues to shape how I communicate, organize information, and work with people.

How I work

Take the work seriously. Don't take yourself too seriously.

I adjust to the room, communicate clearly with the people in it, and keep pushing until the idea or plan becomes real and actionable.
