Denver, CO (2024) · Tampa, FL (2025) · Producer
Full production on two consecutive years of Carbe Diem restaurant takeovers — one-night brand activations transforming existing restaurant spaces into fully branded pasta-night experiences, complete with custom signage, floral installations, styled tablescapes, and product merchandising built into the venue's own aesthetic rather than overriding it.
In 2024, Carbe Diem took over Bar Dough in Denver's Highlands neighborhood. In 2025, the tour scaled up to a takeover of Ebbe, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Tampa helmed by Chef Ebbe (Sweden) — a more high-profile, higher-stakes venue requiring tighter coordination with existing kitchen and FOH operations.
Owned production end-to-end both years: creative concept execution, floral and decor styling, signage fabrication oversight, and on-site event operations, working within the constraints of live, operating restaurant spaces rather than blank-slate venues.
