ABOUT DARIA WALCOTT
I\'m known as someone who makes and fosters connections. If you\'re in the theater/entertainment industry in NYC and you don\'t know me yet.you will soon! I pride myself on putting the human experience first in my work, and a big part of that is surrounding myself with diverse and intelligent folks. I\'m a proud member of and advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, and I believe in a more just and equitable workplace for all. I live for a big flashy rock concert or fashion show with an extravagant budget, but I also deeply respect and will gladly lead a low-key event that needs a delicate touch. In any project, the people involved - and their preferences - are my main focus.
