"Can you make a life-size Gingerbread Carousel?" That was a new one for me. Fortunately, that request came a few weeks ago accompanied by a talented and collaborative client team, upfront budget, and all sprinkled with kindness. Everyone at Katalyst Group, Inc. thoroughly enjoyed bringing Fresh Wata's stunning "The Gingerbread" pop-up vision to life for the entry, Carousel, various gingerbread trees & characters, and Main Bar. Definitely worth a holiday visit to the T-Mobile Center Founder's Club! Thank you, Kay Dalton, Sara Dalton, and your team. The space is spectacular! #holiday #creative #gingerbread #kansascity #brandactivation

Had the honor of DJing for the Netflix NY holiday party! Definitely a bucket list that I hope becomes a reoccurring and developing relationship. Big thank you to the team at Fresh Wata for their help producing a great event.
