It was such a pleasure meeting you in Santa Fe for the Changemaker workshop. Your stories inspired me and your passion for leaving a positive impact on your community is inspiring. I am excited to meet with you to learn more, and I want to share with you a curated portfolio of projects, in hopes that some of these ideas might offer you further inspiration into how we might be able to partner together in the future.
Enjoy,
WELCOME TO MY PORTFOLIO
My passion for designing experiences burns brightest when I am afforded the opportunity to create custom activations that focus on my clients team members. Helping companies enrich their culture by adding an element of fun to their work environment is my greatest strength.
MEMORABLE MOMENT: Music is the universal language and it is a medium I build a lot of my experiences around. This particular event is so special because it provides attendees the opportunity to be a part of a life changing experience.
VALUE OF FUN: To celebrate my clients 20th anniversary, I made a 60-min documentary, telling the story of the amazing people that built it. Perhaps we could do something similar, and tell the story of Levato Law and the people that helped make your company such a success.
END OF YEAR SLIDESHOW: This Miami based law firm hired me to create a slideshow for their end of year banquet. All of the partners and associates shared photos from their vacations and I then used them to create a film. It was a gigantic success!
SCAVENGER HUNTS: I have had a love affair with designing scavenger hunts that dates back to 2004. Since then, I have produced over 500 hunts in 40 US cities and in 3 different countries. I love these events because that can be custom tailored to meet any desired outcome and they are the perfect team building exercise to get a group working together.
EMPLOYEE STORIES: For one of my client’s, I created a series of videos that were shown at their quarterly all-hands meetings. Each month I would interview team members over Zoom and then turn them into short videos. They quickly became “must see” entertainment and were a great way to add a little humor and inject some fun into an otherwise routine meeting.
DAY OF IMPACT: My client was looking for a company wide activation which led to the development of an annual “Day of Impact” where everyone at the company would get the day off from work to invest their time and talents back into their local communities. It turned out to be one of the most impactful ideas I have ever developed for a client.
This is a sampling of a few pieces of work that I feel are most relevant to the design of your professional presentation.
CHANGEMAKER: This was the first film I made for Deb and the Changemaker team. It’s a recap of one of the speakers who presented at the Conrad theater in LaJolla, CA earlier this year.
ANIMATED FILM: I had always wanted to make an animated film, so when my buddy told me this story about meeting Kurt Cobain from Nirvana, I knew it was the perfect time to give it a try. I got to partner with a fantastic illustrator to help bring this vision to life.
POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS: This is a brief look at a few examples of presentations that I have assembled over the years. I specialize in delivering completely custom designs using only your script to make your presentation come to life.
Take a behind the scenes look at my life away from Ridgeline Experiences. My daily life is filled with raising three boys alongside my amazing wife and exploring the endless adventures available to us in Bend, OR.
ADVENTURE: I love producing events and making films, but my true passion is adventure. This page is a deep dive into some of my favorite adventures of all-time.
RHODES BOYS: Watching these three boys grow-up has been absolutely amazing and this video captures the true essence of what it’s like in the Rhodes house on a daily basis.
FULL BIO: If you really want to do a deep dive on me, you can check out my full bio. It’s filled with insights into my career as a Director of Fun.
I am excited to partner together on an upcoming project and I look forward to connecting with you again real soon.
