About

Companies trust me, to design, organise and manage their activations. But it wouldn't have been possible without my experience. I was an event manager at 16, to a team of 30 people. 3 years later, in 2021 I ventured into hosting my own events. I have sold over 15,000 tickets and accumulated over £250,000 in profit from EVENTS. I've organised nightclub events (DXPE) and a networking event (HighRise Network) around the UK. Without even realising it, I was building teams of suppliers around the UK, who all played a part in selling out each event. I then realised that BRANDS who lacked COMMUNITY, also needed these teams to maximise the people attending their events, wether the ticket was free or paid. And so HighRise was born... Myself, or HighRise are called upon when a premium brand is hosting an activation and they need one of the following teams. DJs - Budget DJ or Special Guest Artists - Artist sourcing and liaising Musicians - Saxophonists, Pianists, Drummers & Singers. Equipment - Speakers, Decks, Custom DJ Booth, Microphone, Setup & De-installation Media Coverage - Videographers, Photographers, Video Editors, Film Directors, Producers. Design - AI Design & Graphic Design Influencer Marketing - Event Attendees, Guestlist Curation, UGC Creation Decor - Bespoke Themes, Moodboard Curation & Sourcing of ALL decor Photo Op Walls - IG Friendly Photo Area, Photobooths, 360 Booths etc Trusted by: • Beauty // Space NK, Clomana, Morphe, Glossify • Retail // Selfridges, Trafford Centre, Westfield LDN, Bullring, Bluewater, The Shard • Fashion // EGO, Thriving Gym, PrettyLittleThing, Boohoo, Nasty Gal • Sports // Rising Ballers, JD Sports, The FA, Nike, Sports Direct, Man City FC • Movie // Warner Bros, VUE • Beverage // Redbull UK, Drip, Hennessy, Patron, Belaire Planning an activation?

After being highly recommended, we were reached out to via a vendor of the client to organise and arrange the BRIT's after party in Manchester. After taking a brief on the style of event, capacity and ambience, we took lead on arranging venue viewings around Manchester. We showed the client 7 venues in a single day & they selected the one they preferred the most. I then had the pleasure of DJing at the night in front of 1000 people, before the main act arrived. The night was a huge success generating over £15,000 for the venue & a fully sold out night for the after party with guests such as: Skepta, Maya Jama, Aitch & Nemzzz.

With the MK team being based in London & overseas, we were the bridge that were able to connect them to Manchester talented individuals. - We provided an all white DJ setup with a custom branded DJ booth. - We provided to guest DJs from the Manchester area with a following of 70,000. - We provided a Manchester photographer who's goal was to capture photos for the internal MK team. Overall we initiated a re-launch day for the brand in the Trafford centre & the day was a huge success, smashing targets. It will be exciting to work with Michael Kors again.
