With a solid decade in the agency and events space, I've had the pleasure of collaborating with the best and brightest to bring major music festivals, branded experiences, sporting events, and marketing activations to life. I've also taken great pleasure in helping a diverse set of clients streamline and optimize their internal operations to unlock growth. As a go-to hire, companies consistently turn to me for their trickiest projects because they trust my ability to lead teams, handle clients with care & confidence, and improve upon what's handed to me.
I've successfully managed my own freelance & consulting business for the past six years, and am always looking for new and exciting ways to make a significant and lasting impact on the internal operations of a company, team, project or event.

“Summer is a critical part of our event team. Her expertise in creating systems and policies that both effectively communicate with staff and allow us to reconcile efficiently is un-paralleled in this industry. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a true professional that is a joy to work with.”
✨ Brynn H, Outside Lands Music Festival
“Thank you so much for all of your strategic thinking and hard work wrangling this social campaign. It was an event of firsts for us and having you as the calm, cool, and collected driver of our social execution was a HUGE advantage. It was fun, energetic, and felt BIG, and given the timeline and being virtual, that is difficult to do.”
✨ Kevin S, Verizon Media (Yahoo Build it Forward)
"Summer was an absolute pleasure to work with and an incredible help for our small business! We needed significant assistance organizing, streamlining, and automating the processes and procedures for our expanding startup. Summer did a quick yet thorough deep dive into all areas of our business and from there was able to recommend (and implement!!) strategies for improved project and operations management. She was technologically proficient, patient with our disorganization, flexible in her options/tools, and really seemed to understand what we needed in order to grow in an efficient way. We definitely look forward to working with Summer again in the future!"
✨ Noelle S, Co-Founder @ Avant Training
"Summer was a pleasure to work with on our 3-day music festival project. Communication, organization, and process creation are some of her clear strengths. Summer was able to organize an incredible amount of information from multiple sources into a single database and create a process for the management of travel and hotel stays for hundreds of festival personnel. This process captured everything from intake, booking, and changes, to final billing and settlement. Summer was also always timely and responsive to inquiries and developing needs in a very demanding environment. She was a great asset to our internal personnel and an excellent representative of our organization externally as well. We now have a solid procedural foundation for the future and a complete record of the actual results for historical reference. Our team was very impressed by her professional demeanor and skillful execution and we look forward to working together in the future."
✨ Lee F, COO @ Life is Beautiful Music & Art Festival
"Summer was an absolute pleasure to work with! She assisted my team and I in creating better systems and procedures as well as giving us the tools to implement these changes. I would absolutely hire her again."
✨ Lindsey L, Offsite Experiences
“Working with Summer was incredible. The entire project from start to finish was so throughly thought through and executed and the results were transformational. She expertly worked with our internal team alongside one of our agency partners to create and implement a design asset request and project management process and workflow. It has allowed our creative team to efficiently manage all things design from ideas to final deliverables and we can't wait to work with her again.”
