Photography for the Gino’s East partnership with 360 Chicago

National Pizza Month 2021 – we collaborated with David Edwards of the LA Rams to create a specialty pizza; The Left Giard. Though the Super Bowl champ currently lives & plays in Los Angeles, David’s a Chicago native whose love for Gino’s East runs deep. We arranged a meet & greet event at Gino’s East LA to launch the pizza.

I was able to organize some pretty amazing fundraising initiatives with impactful Chicago organizations, like The Greater Chicago Food Depository.

In Summer 2021, I commissioned three artists to paint new murals on the Gino’s East Magnificent Mile Rooftop Terrace. They’re featured in this video of the Stella Artois Rooftop Terrace, one of the many events I’ve produced with the company.
