Bio:

After 5 successful years in financing, working for the man, I decided I needed to do something I really enjoyed that didn’t involved a cubicle.

In late November 2008 Rock Me Arizona Inc. was formed as an entertainment booking company for live music and DJ’s which quickly evolved into an events company at clients requests.

2009 was a challenging year for everyone but after several thriving events from networking happy hours to charity fundraisers, Rock Me Arizona events are now known as fun and exciting events, hosting a variety of quality guests, vendors, venues and always come with exceptional entertainment from music to fashion. In all events I try to connect with local talent as a way to support Arizona businesses and up and coming professionals.

2010 – has been monumental in that Rock Me Arizona has become the first independent company to work for the Boys & Girls Clubs of the East Valley for fundraising. After many, many interviews and a rigorous background check I was presented with the opportunity to represent this outstanding organization as the campaign manager for “Change 4 Kids”, the Boys & Girls Clubs of the East Valley’s newest fundraising campaign. This is an honor and a challenge and Rock Me Arizona will host a series of events in 2010 for this campaign.

Celebrity Catwalk for a Cause is the newest addition to Rock Me Arizona Events and will fundraise for local valley charities at exceptional venues. Fashion, Charity, Celebrities and Inspiration.
