My team and I had the opportunity to reimagine the annual Tufts University Coffeehouse tradition.

We brought this event to the infamous President’s Lawn. Our event welcomed record attendance of students for an evening of live music, apple cider donuts, conversation, and community.

Tufts student band Saint Cecilia opened the night beautifully, followed by an incredible performance from Sammy Rae and Will Leet of Sammy Rae & The Friends. After their set, my co-coordinator Luke Steiner and I led a Q&A with the artists about their creative process, songwriting, and their experience in the music industry.

Seeing months of imagination and logistical coordination come to life in such a meaningful way was exactly why I adore this work.
