The Gummy Awards at the Music Hall of Williamsburg

The Gummy Awards

presented by Hewlett Packard

They say you never forget your first, and my inaugural live event activation was truly immaculate, no notes. The Gummy Awards turned Stereogum's popular year-end reader survey into an unforgettable live experience at the Music Hall of Williamsburg.

  • Hosted by Max Silvestri and Gabe Delahaye, featuring performances by Deerhunter, Violens, and Bell
  • Hewlett Packard as the presenting sponsor
  • Learning on the fly, total event orchestration from venue booking to artist & VIP relations to stage manager night of show

From concept development to silky smooth event execution, I led this dynamic activation in collaboration with the incomparable Stereogum team, ensuring a memorable experience for attendees. Plus: my first New York Times review!
