# EVENTS

ENGADGET EXPAND
Held bi-annually at San Francisco's Fort Mason and New York City's Javits Center,
Engadget Expand is a first-of-its-kind consumer tech event that shows thousands of gadget enthusiasts the future of technology. Featuring a star-studded speaker roster of visionaries from
Google, Facebook,
DARPA, HTC,
Kickstarter,
Nokia, MIT, Microsoft, and a host of emerging startups from Pebble to 3D Systems, Expand also showcased the intersection of culture and
technology with performances, talks, and workshops from the likes of Spike Lee,
Reggie Watts,
RJD2,
LeVar Burton,
DJ Spooky, and more.
Add in an exhibition floor packed with over 50 interactive experiences from some of the world's top tech brands and emerging hardware companies, the
Insert Coin crowdfunded hardware competition with $25,000 in prize money, 2 days of workshops for all ages, a Raspberry Pi competition, robot dance party, Lego Mindstorms competition, wearables fashion show, and classic arcade after-party -- and you'll start to have some idea of the "technological carnival delights" that characterizes Expand.
My role was to envision the event from the ground up, working cross-functionally with editorial, sales, marketing, PR, finance, and events staff to produce the show from floor to stage to
mobile app. I also forged partnerships with dozens of companies including sponsorship activations, interactive exhibitions, product launches, media partnerships, and contests (including sending 2 lucky attendees to the show
via Gogo's private jet), along with fielding interviews from local and national press at the events.

ENGADGET LIVE
We took the vibe of Expand on tour around the country for evening events in multiple cities, giving gadget enthusiasts the chance to get their hands on some of the latest and greatest technologies -- many not even released yet to the public --
and the opportunity to drink some beers with the Engadget editors. We had a blast in
Austin,
Seattle,
Boston, and
LA to name a few. I led the charge to wrangle sponsors, giveaways, promotions, and production logistics with the events team.

OFFICIAL CES AWARDS at the Consumer Electronics Show
I oversaw the business side of Engadget's takeover of the
Official Best of CES Awards after CNet's long run with the franchise
ended in 2013, managing our relationship with the Consumer Electronics Association as well as all staging, production, promotion, collateral, and licensing of
the Awards.
