Our Passion
While our tagline is “fundraisers to festivals”, no matter the size of your event, our passion lies with giving back to our community by providing high-quality production services to organizations that better our schools, our health-care options, programs that enrich the lives of others – thereby enriching our own.
Catalyst is the merger of two organizations, one focused on the planning, coordination and logistics of events and the other focused on the production aspects including audio, video and lighting. These two entities merged to provide a unique event production experience where the planning logistics and production execution are combined into one full-service organization with talents that are in-house.
Michelle
Catalyst Owner and Director of Operations
A project manager with over 20-years in tenant improvement construction and facilities management. Herding cats is her specialty and she takes her project management experience and applies it to your event. With a family history of giving back to the community through volunteering, she spent many years volunteering in the Seattle Asian community by providing auction coordination services in her “off-time”. Branching out and volunteering for other non-profit organizations, someone finally suggested she start a business – and Catalyst came to inception.
Patrick
Catalyst Director of Technical Production
Patrick, our Technical Production Director has a wealth of knowledge stemming from his years as the self-proclaimed A/V geek in high school to producing large-scale, multi-stage events including some of those multi-day events at the Gorge Amphitheater that you go to or went to when you were just a few years younger. He will take his intellectual capital and scale his experience to your event, ensuring highly-intelligible audio along with creative décor and lighting.
