Let me tell you something I’ve learned.

You can follow the plan, get every detail right, and still miss the point. I’ve seen it, events that run on time, look great, and check every box… but leave no real impact.

I remember one community event in particular. The logistics were solid. Crowd showed up. Music played. The whole thing ran smooth.

But people didn’t stay. They wandered. Scrolled. Left early. No one really connected. It looked good, but it didn’t mean anything.

That day was supposed to bring people together. It didn’t. The opportunity was there, we just didn’t design for it.

That’s why I started Tukoda Productions. We don’t just produce events. We build experiences that hold people. Where the purpose is clear, and the design serves it.

My background is in sociology, psychology, and facilitation. But what matters is this: I know how to build something that lasts. Something people feel.

And when we bring in a team, we do it right. We don’t micromanage or cut corners. Everyone, from the AV tech to the cultural curator, is trusted to bring their best work, with their name on it. That’s how good events get built. With integrity.

This isn’t about putting on a show. It’s about doing the work well, and making it count.
