Chasen Shaw
Event Manager - WED®
PERFORMER, MUSICIAN, AND
LIFELONG LOVER OF CELEBRATING LIFE.
MUSIC IS MY WHOLE LIFE. SINCE BIRTH, I PERFORMED ON STAGE THEATER AND STUDIED MUSIC. IN SCHOOL, I SANG IN THE CHOIR AND RAN AUDIO. I BEGAN RECORDING MIXTAPES WITH BREAKS LIKE A RADIO DJ, MAKING SURE TO HIT THE POST. I MADE FRIENDS WITH LOCAL RADIO DJS. IN MIDDLE SCHOOL, I PICKED UP TROMBONE AND PIANO, AND STARTED LEARNING MUSIC THEORY.
AT MY FIRST JUNIOR HIGH DANCE, I MET MY FUTURE MENTOR AND LATER WORKED WITH HIM AS A DJ AT OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY. AFTER GRADUATING, I JUMPED INTO THE SPECIAL EVENT INDUSTRY FULL TIME.
WE GREW FROM “JUST THE DJ”, TO EVENT PLANNER AND PRODUCER.
CLIENTS WANTED US TO GUIDE AND PREPARE THEM IN ADVANCE AND ALSO PROVIDE ENTERTAINMENT AT THEIR EVENT. THEY NEEDED SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS ACTUALLY HAPPENING, CARED ABOUT THEIR GOALS, AND COULD MANAGE EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE ACCORDINGLY.
TODAY, I AM PROUD TO SERVE MY CLIENTS WITH OUR ELITE TEAM OF EVENT PROFESSIONALS.
THEY ARE COMPASSIONATE, CONSIDERATE, AND INCREDIBLY TALENTED.
Valon Mendez
EVENT MC – VOCALIST – PARTY DJ
Young, professional, and handsome. Valon’s humble approach to each day makes working with him fun for everyone. His calm nature and “I got you” attitude are often reviewed highly by his former clients and couples.
Valon continues to improve and broaden his skill sets to better help clients “in the trenches” during events to solve problems and help them achieve their mission. If he isn’t on the stage or dance floor as MC, he is “back of house” making sure all the parts are moving in order.
We are so thankful to have Valon in our family.
Jeff Hambrecht
EVENT HOST – PRODUCTION STAFF
Energy is contagious, and Jeff’s energy is worth catching. He is highly reviewed for making everyone feel welcomed and active. His fun-loving attitude is immediately accepted and events are naturally more successful when Jeff is involved.
Coming from the health industry, live events and interactions that require advanced interpersonal skills are where Jeff excels. We are proud to have him on the team and know he brings so many intangibles to each event.
