About Me
Hi, I’m Hayden, a storyteller and creative/technical producer who has found a passion for experiential storytelling and themed entertainment. I’m drawn to real-world moments where physicality is enhanced by technology to create magical moments. For me, there’s nothing like an in-person experience that awakens the imagination and encourages the rare feeling of being in the present.
I am currently a Creative Producer, driving the upcoming Los Angeles project through its lifecycle, from Blue Sky to Opening, protecting the Creative Vision, meeting critical deliverables, managing a scope of over $8 million, and aligning a cross-discplinary team of 125+. Previously, I’ve helped develop a handful of shelved and future Meow Wolf projects during Blue Sky and early project phases, specializing in facilitating ideation to define the Creative Idea. I served as a Blue Sky Creative producer and helped define the Creative Idea, for, what is now, the in-development Meow Wolf New York Project!
I am a graduate of NYU’s Interactive Media Arts Low Res program where I explored world building, intentional design, creative coding, and phsyical computing culminating in a my master’s thesis Finley’s Van, an installation of memory, objects, and time.
I’m always looking for new connections. Reach out!
