Budgets and Reporting for Creative Professionals

Calculator, pen, glasses, and financial documents with money.

Why this service?

You've poured your heart into your show, but even the most brilliant script or concept can falter without a solid financial plan. Especially when applying to grants, festivals, and approaching producers.


I’ve worked across multiple roles in live entertainment (Stage Manager, Company Manager, Associate General Manager, and Producer) and I’ve touched every line item in a budget. I know how each cost affects your cast, crew, and audience. And I also know how scary this can feel when you’re just getting started.

Money isn't just math. It's strategy.

You’re not just counting pennies for an Excel. You are making choices that impact pay equity, production quality, the chance of your story making a difference, and hopefully(!) making money for the next show. I will help you align your financial plan with your creative and business goals.

Money shouldn't choose whose stories are told.
