Extended Bio from Philip
- Emceeing: Game show host for Nickelodeon, countless grand openings for theme parks, stores, and businesses, trade shows/conventions for many Fortune 500 companies, festivals & concerts, Comic Cons, arena football, MLB baseball, tournaments, fundraisers, auctions, conferences/summits, weddings, news events, and more. I've emceed Country Thunder, Stagecoach, Boots In The Park, Old Town Music Fest, and more. Entertaining, messaging/announcements, humor/improv, contests, interviews, bios, b-roll, engagement, high-energy, captivating.
- Line Dancing: we've chatted about this quite a bit. 100K+ views per week on Youtube...over 500 lessons/demos. I've taught tens of thousands of people around the country, emceed and taught at national dance conventions, & I'm a well-recognized name in the dance community. That said, much of that means little compared to how well I get people engaged at each event that I do. Read some of my testimonials. Google Business: Boot Scootin San Diego --> PLEASE, read them. I have yet to find an instructor who does it better. Engagement, comedy, grace, sense of community, high-energy and the stamina to keep it going throughout long festival days.
- Team Building: facilitating numerous events per week for corporate groups. Amazing races, scavenger hunts, CSR, sandcastle builds, team olympics, game shows, minute-to-win it, sports tournaments, leisure games, communications and leadership workshops, and more. Connection, laughter, commonality, challenge/growth, networking, fostering community & belonging, competition, entertainment.
- Hospitality: 10 years on cruise ships, 8 years at theme parks, 4+ years at high end resorts. Assistant cruise director, Youth program director, performer, ambassador. Running activities, making guests feel like family, hopping from one activity to the next, hosting in a way that makes guests believe that I am the one taking responsibility for them feeling welcome and having a great experience, attention to detail, etc. I also have a few years of experience in production..understanding the backend of a show/experience.
Why does all this matter? A couple reasons:
1) Versatility. Whether you use me for one thing, or for five or ten different things, I'm going to knock it out of the park. I got it. No need to worry if the guests are engaged and enjoying themselves.
2) Quality. I care about everything that I associate myself with and my aim is to make such a stellar, memorable impression on the guests, that they are talking about the event for weeks & months afterwards. More specifically, so that they look forward to booking it again the following year, in hopes to reconnect with me and recreate some of those experiences. Not only do I want to interact & facilitate activities with people...I want them to feel & come away with an experience.
You have an emcee already? I think that's fantastic because that is someone who is familiar with the lay of the land, how things are run, who's who, expectations, etc. Should I be asked to help with activities outside of teaching/leading dance, I can support that person, and they can support me....and together, we can double the outreach to keep people entertained, informed, and engaged. Total win win.
