WATCH THIS (ZERO)SPACE!
I helped to open the award-winning ZeroSpace immersive experience a few years ago. That iteration unfortunately closed with the pandemic, but in a silver lining twist, they pivoted into a next-gen production/incubation operation in Brooklyn. ZeroSpace now features an LED XR stage, a Vicon motion capture stage, photogrammetry studio, a small but super talented creative/tech/production team and 40,000 sq. feet of rentable warehouse space for film/photo shoots and live event production. In addition to doing creative/production projects over the past year with a host of huge brands—Disney, Amazon, Justin Bieber, Fortnite, Meta, and Hermes to name a few—they have started filling a pipeline with groundbreaking creative IP and proprietary technology. I rejoined the team to help the leadership team with some organizational and growth initiatives and can’t wait to see what’s next!
THE PEONIES: SUMMER IN THE CITY NOW AVAILABLE!
Alix Sloan and I are beyond excited to announce our debut middle grade novel, The Peonies: Summer in the City is now available! The humorous and heart-warming novel for middle grade readers was inspired by the many amazing young people in our lives and addresses real-world subjects like friendship, family, and finances, in a fun and engaging way.
The novel follows the story of a pair of 11-year-old best friends, Poppy and Esme, “P & E” or “The Peonies” for short. What happens when they find out they’ll be facing middle school separately? They turn the worst news ever into the time of their lives in The Peonies: Summer in the City.

UPDATE!! THE FALLEN SAINT // HOTBED MUSIC HALL
The Fallen Saint // Hotbed Music Hall, is a venture I've been happily working on with a group of talented colleagues/friends from Blue Man Group, Queen of the Night, STOMP! and beyond.
Hotbed Music Hall is a world-class entertainment venue and full service café/bar anchored by The Fallen Saint, a new live music/immersive theater concept inspired by the music and culture of New Orleans from turn-of-the-century through Prohibition.
Just days away from breaking ground on our first venue, this awesome project was put on a COVID pause. The initial disappointment was quickly replaced by the relief of NOT having a big entertainment and hospitality venue in uncertain times for our industry. We carefully put everything in storage and have an incredible, proven concept ready to go that can easily flex to meet any new industry guidelines. We’re committed to bringing this winner to fruition and we’re open for discussion! CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION.
FLIRTING WITH THE ZODIAC…A MYSTICAL EXPERIENCE
I’ve been working on a provocative and gorgeous experiential concept unlike anything I’ve seen before for the past 18 months or so. The team is incredibly accomplished and passionate and the pitch deck is starting to make the rounds to very interested investors and partners. It’s top secret for now, but watch the stars for more news…
THE UNVEILING
A friend and I were commissioned to create an immersive dining experience/nightlife concept for an NYC hotel. They loved it but some corporate drama kept it from happening (the 10K square foot space is sadly still empty…).
BUT, this means…this super sexy, super chic, super flexible experience is looking for a home. It is centered around the modern art world—with plenty of opportunities for celebrity appearances, guest chefs and rotating visual artists. The costs to produce and operate are relatively low and it’s designed to smoothly transition from show to nightlife to keep the party going! We are in very early conversations with a couple of possible venues (and totally open to others, call me!), so hopefully it will come to life somewhere.
AMERICA’S HOTTEST NEW JOINT!
Another friend and I developed an awesome experiential entertainment/hospitality/retail concept. It is a celebration of the growing acceptance of recreational, medicinal and industrial cannabis in the U.S. and around the world. It combines awesome experiences and progressive attitudes in a retro/nostalgic setting; providing something for adults from all walks of life. Our hope is to license the concept—we are talking with a couple of funds who specialize in the rapidly growing cannabis industry. If anyone talks to @snoopdogg @marthastewart or @jayzz_official, let them know we’ve got a great idea for them!
