About

Launching, growing, and running an experiential agency for nearly 20 years taught me what works, what breaks, and how to get it done right. I started Department Zero in a spare bedroom and grew to 3 US offices, Fortune 500 clients, 60k+ event activations, and spun off a staffing agency, Pepper Talent. Today, I help brand and agency teams as a behind-the-scenes partner to eliminate hidden costs, streamline execution, supercharge ROI, and deliver powerful live experiences on time and on budget.
