As a former world champion mountain bike athlete, I’ve built a career blending a love for adventure with a dedication to creating exceptional experiences. With over a decade of experience across event management, hospitality, and brand engagement, I focus on connecting people to what they love—whether that’s the outdoors, community, or a shared moment over a glass of wine.
Most recently, I led tasting room operations at Byington Winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where I elevated the guest experience, refined team processes, and helped shape a more polished and welcoming environment.
In parallel, I continue my role as Lodging & Camping Manager for the Life Time Sea Otter Classic, overseeing accommodations and logistics for thousands of attendees at one of the world’s largest cycling festivals.
From intimate hospitality settings to large-scale events, my approach remains the same: thoughtful execution, strong team collaboration, and experiences that feel both seamless and memorable.
Currently exploring new opportunities where I can bring this blend of hospitality, event operations, and community-driven experience to a dynamic team.
