hartstop blossomed out of DIY events that I began hosting in my apartment in 2017, fulfilling the need for more inclusive spaces for artists, while merging art forms and local scenes to inspire collaboration and a thriving creative community.

Right up until the onset of the Covid 19 pandemic, hartstop produced 3-5 eclectic monthly events at a rotating cast of New York venues (including my living room), always keeping representation of our diverse neighborhood at the forefront of booking.

hartstop provided a platform for thousands of local and touring artists, musicians, comedians, vendors, dancers, and more, while also offering wellness programming and support groups for artists and the larger community.

My responsibilities included:

• Handling business affairs, operations and finances.
• Booking artists and curating lineups.
• Hiring and managing staff, crew, and vendors.
• Documenting all live events via film photography and video, which now constitutes an in-depth collection of media capturing a moment in time.
• Maintaining an active, engaging blog and social media presence.
