Michelle’s passion is bringing fans and properties together to create unforgettable experiences that bring the fan community together.

In 2009, Michelle began her events career by producing parties for Sanrio for their Hello Kitty’s 35th Anniversary including the Hello Kitty Bats and Cats Masquerade. She also produced the Sanrio 80s Prom Party and the Hello Kitty I Heart Nerds event for Sanrio’s 30th Anniversary at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. Following that grand debut into events, Michelle then continued at a breakneck pace producing events for companies in the Japanese pop culture market, including fashion shows (6%DOKIDOKI, Sanrio, the Consulate-General of Japan for the United States, Galaxxxy), trade show consumer experiences (Rilakkuma, Munky King), pop up stores (JapanLA, Rilakkuma), eSports tournaments (Fortnite), a pop-up themed cafe (Rilakkuma) and private galas for fans and VIPS alike (Disney Animation, Rilakkuma, Fortnite). Her event production prowess has led her to produce events in Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, Seattle, Indianapolis and San Francisco. Michelle recently was awarded GamingTrends “Best Party of Gen Con” for the “Ragnarock Rage Stage” party she produced for Hunters Entertainment this past August 2023.
