Served as the Operations Manager of Complex Network's first ever, Complex Con.
ComplexCon, an artistically curated convention that brought the world of Complex to life, took place in Long Beach on November 5-6th in 2016. The convention brought together industry greats like artist Takashi Murakami and Pharrell Williams, who co-hosted the event, along with a ticket of a-grade musical performers like Snoop Dog, Travis Scott and Kid Cudi. A convergence of brands, music, food, art and fashion, the first ComplexCon was a resounding success and laid the foundation for an annual celebration of the collision of the internet with real life.
Smirnoff, the official liquor sponsor of ComplexCon 2016, had an open bar activation at the concerts featured at the festival.
