Chase Jones

I am a filmmaker and project manager passionate about bringing stories to life across film, live entertainment, and immersive experiences. With a degree in Dramatic Writing and a background in production management, I specialize in leading creative projects from concept to execution while balancing storytelling, collaboration, and organization.

My passion for storytelling extends beyond production and into hospitality, where I enjoy connecting with people and learning from their unique experiences. Through guest-facing roles, I have developed strong communication, adaptability, and customer service skills that help me build meaningful relationships and create positive experiences.

Whether I am managing a project, supporting a team, or engaging with guests, I am driven by curiosity, creativity, and a commitment to making a lasting impact through both stories and human connection.
