Gottfried
Event Planner/Graphic Designer
James has over 8 years experience as an event
planner and also 20 years experience as a graphic
designer. He has worked with Stagetime Productions
since it's inception.
James went to school for graphic design. He started
his career in advertising design and then expanded
into website layout and design, video editing and
additional graphic design work, including logo
design, full color catalogs, banner/poster design,
and digital design including powerpoint and social
media. James also worked with a publishing company
designing advertisements and had been with them for
16 years.
James started his event career as a volunteer for
the several non profits galas. After a couple years,
he started taking lead positions with the silent
auction and found smoother and more efficient ways
for them to achieve a more successful fundraiser. In
2003, James was one of the first people to join
Stagetime Productions, working as a stage manager,
graphic designer and silent auction coordinator.
James became an event planner in 2010. Some of his
biggest projects to date are the Walk To End Hunger
(event planner), A Night to Bel13ve Gala
(registration lead), SuperBowl 52 (assistant
producer) and Diamond Awards (auction lead). He enjoys the
ever changing, always challenging, environment and
finds satisfaction working with both non profit
organizations and corporate clients to produce
extraordinary events.
