I am drawn to the moment where a creative idea becomes something people actually experience.

I grew up in Winter Park, so theme parks were part of the backdrop long before they were part of my career. What stuck with me was not only the scale of the parks, but the decisions underneath them: how a queue sets expectations, how a team member changes the mood of a day, how a campaign shapes what guests believe they are about to feel, and how technology can make an experience more personal.

That curiosity took me from an early computer science track into Entertainment Management at the University of Central Florida, where I studied the business, creative, and operational sides of entertainment. I have used school projects to dig into theme park marketing, gamification, touring production, sponsorship, crisis communications, and the gap between digital promotion and real guest experience.

Professionally, I have worked inside major entertainment environments from Disney College Program operations to Universal Orlando Resort attractions, including Epic Universe. Those roles have given me a practical view of safety, training, guest service, attraction openings, and day-to-day operations. They also taught me that the best entertainment work depends on both imagination and process.

Outside the parks, I have spent more than a decade creating online content and studying audience behavior through YouTube, streaming, social media, and analytics. This site brings those pieces together: who I am, what I have studied, what I have made, and where I want to keep growing.
