My first halftime show behind the desk,,,,, extremely grateful

Huge thank you to @tsuth88 and the entire team for your trust, patience, and support while I worked through one of the biggest moments of my career. I’m incredibly proud of what we pulled off in the time we had.

Special shoutout to @emarchwinski for setting the standard & showing me what it means to do a halftime show the right way. The lessons, perspective, and skills I’ve gained through this process will stay with me for years to come. Thank you for pushing me to be better.

Thank you @markhumphrey for leading the ship and trusting I wouldn’t fuck up your showfile.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who made this possible.

See u next year 🫶🏽

Work appreciation post ✨🤩🤪💡🔦

This year has been filled with so many major, beautiful, extraordinary projects. Most of them feel like they’re happening in the blink of an eye, but I’m really trying my best to savor every moment. I’m genuinely grateful for every opportunity, every room I’ve gotten to be in, and every team that’s trusted me to help bring their vision to life.

Here’s a few projects from the past 90 days… honestly, I’m still trying to find the words for what it feels like to be living my childhood dreams. So I’ll start simple, thank you. Thank you to myself for showing up, and thank you to everyone who has created with me and continues to. (My future dreams may include more sleep……but we’ll save that for my 40s)

I tried to tag everyone who touched these shows, but I’m sure I forgot people, SORRY in advance. Truly, the usual suspects below are some of the most dedicated, talented, extraordinary humans out there. Without them, these shows would be much harder to pull off and definitely a lot less beautiful.

Here’s to more growth, more extraordinary people, & more beautiful shows 🥂 by @diontemercado
