About Kyle

For over 15 years, I’ve been at the intersection of brand building, community-driven storytelling, and impactful marketing strategy, specializing in music, entertainment, and digital media. My work is all about turning moments into movements—helping artists, creators, and brands build lasting cultural footprints.

Downtown Podcast – Las Vegas’ Late-Night Cultural Staple

As Talent Booker, Producer, and Content Developer, I helped transform Downtown Podcast from a small living-room project into a weekly live show that filled the 150-seat Inspire Theater and secured local TV distribution. I booked conversations with Kimbal Musk, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sir Mix-A-Lot, and Tony Hsieh, while managing social strategy and building brand partnerships with Sailor Jerry, Ambros Whiskey, and Sin City Brewery. It was grassroots community building at its finest—and it shaped my approach to storytelling that resonates authentically.

Founder of Vegas Live Sessions & 1403

I launched two music platforms—Vegas Live Sessions and 1403—that turned living rooms and local venues into stages for emerging talent. Vegas Live Sessions was asked to program and sponsor the Local Artist Stage at Life is Beautiful Festival, while 1403 was a platform for artists like Knox, now signed with Atlantic Records. These projects weren’t just events; they were ecosystems where artists were seen, heard, and supported.

At Vegas Live Sessions, I conceptualized, organized, and executed the first-ever VLS Awards—a playful and spirited awards show designed purely to honor and appreciate the hardworking bands and musicians of the local music scene. We invited every band that had performed at our sessions, worked with the bar to create a signature cocktail (with proceeds going to a raffle for an artist or band), secured liquor sponsorships, and brought in press coverage from Las Vegas Weekly, News 8, and Vegas Seven. It was a celebration of community, creativity, and the raw talent that drives local music.

National Tour Operations & Brand Partnerships

From managing Jon Taffer’s (Bar Rescue) 27-city national tour to brokering partnerships with brands like Ram, Solo Stove, John Deere, Lucchese, and Showtime, I’ve been in the driver’s seat of six-figure campaigns and sold-out shows. I’ve also led social strategy for artists like Randy Houser, Caroline Jones (toured with Zac Brown Band), Mitch Rossell (toured with Garth Brooks), and Stephanie Quayle, securing major brand collaborations.

Building Creator Ecosystems & Media-First Marketing

At Huddles App, I helped secure a $10M investment from Alexis Ohanian by building creator ecosystems and monetization frameworks. As Director of Brand and Social Storytelling at Apollo Insurance Solutions, I transformed a traditional marketing department into a media-first, content-driven operation—boosting qualified leads by 30%, cutting acquisition costs by 35%, and managing a $450K quarterly ad spend. I also grew our newsletter to 2,000 subscribers in its first week, making the insurance space feel more human and accessible.

If you’re building something that matters, something that needs to resonate deeply and grow authentically, I’d love to connect.
