Creative leadership across venue development,
entertainment programming and technical
integration for Princess Cruises’ next generation

THE NEW-BUILD JOURNEY
From Blueprint to Launch
New-build development requires creative vision to work hand in hand with architecture, engineering, technology and operations.
Across Sphere Class, I worked with multidisciplinary teams from early venue development through construction, installation and launch—helping shape spaces, entertainment experiences and programming designed for both the guest journey and the realities of operation.
VISION → DESIGN → BUILD → INTEGRATE → LAUNCH
CREATIVE LEADERSHIP IN PRACTICE
Connecting Vision with Delivery
01 SHAPING THE VENUES
Worked with venue designers, ship architects, engineers and shipbuilding teams to integrate entertainment requirements into the design, guest flow and operation of experiential spaces.
02 CREATIVE & TECHNICAL INTEGRATION
Connected creative vision with the physical build, collaborating across AV, lighting, show control, staging and technical production.
03 PROGRAM & TEAM LEADERSHIP
Led creative and entertainment teams from ideation and concept development through commissioning, production and onboard rehearsal.
04 FROM BUILD TO LAUNCH
Stayed actively involved through construction, technical integration and opening, including inaugural events and naming ceremonies.
FROM BUILD TO EXPERIENCE
Bringing Spaces to Life
From unfinished spaces and technical infrastructure to fully realized guest experiences, creative leadership continued through installation, commissioning, programming and launch.
THE DOME
Construction → Entertainment in operation
EXPERIENCE DEVELOPMENT
Designing the Whole Experience
The strongest experiences connect the physical environment with story, technology, service and operation.
For Good Spirits at Sea, I created the original concept and led its development from idea to operation—shaping the venue, storytelling, technology, programming and guest experience.
ENTERTAINMENT & PROGRAMMING
Shaping the Onboard Experience
Sphere Class required more than creating individual venues. It meant developing entertainment, programming and guest-facing media across the ship—considering how guests experience each space throughout the day and how those experiences come together as part of the overall journey.
I led creative development across live entertainment, activations and programming as well as all guest-facing media, working with creative, production, technical and operational teams to take ideas from concept to launch.
FROM VISION TO LAUNCH
Built to Be Experienced
From first ideas to opening day, I stayed close to the work, protecting the creative vision through every stage of delivery.
