Kate Sullivan Nelson is a creative director, producer, and storyteller whose career blends theatrical imagination with executive-level precision. With nearly two decades in the event industry, she has become known for her ability to develop high-impact concepts, lead multidisciplinary teams, and deliver polished, emotionally engaging experiences for corporate and luxury clients.

Kate studied performance, theatrical design, and creative writing at Tulane University in New Orleans, grounding her in the narrative and visual disciplines that continue to shape her work. That artistic foundation—combined with years of producing large-scale programs for national associations and global brands—gave her a rare fluency in both the creative and operational sides of complex productions.

She is particularly skilled at envisioning an experience from the audience’s perspective—anticipating the emotional arc, pacing, and sensory details that transform a program from “well executed” to genuinely unforgettable. Colleagues and clients alike rely on her for her clarity, her calm leadership, and her knack for making even the boldest ideas feel both achievable and elevated.

Today, Kate leads award-winning creative teams, collaborates with world-class performers and designers, and oversees a diverse portfolio of theatrical entertainment, immersive experiences, and bespoke corporate productions. Whether guiding a high-profile gala, shaping a creative pitch, or directing a roomful of artists, she brings intention, wit, and a signature spark to every project.

At her core, Kate believes that great events don’t just entertain—they reveal something meaningful. And she remains endlessly inspired by the power of live performance to surprise, delight, and connect people long after the lights go down.
