Ashley Adkins

Marketing major / paralegal turned laser tech, op, and LSO. I do many different types of laser shows: festivals (large and small), nightclub shows, arena shows, tours, even small events like corporate, weddings, and college parties. I also love to do art installations, being creative, and thinking outside the box. Trying new things is my favorite. If you have a vision, I WILL find a way to make it happen. I am extremely passionate about what I do and motivated. I do not stop. Busking / live op is my favorite & most fun, but I’ll run a time code too. I put safety as a priority above anything first. My marketing degree helps a lot in this industry.

I am also very well rounded in other areas in production as I started in 2016 as a promotor and then I was a traveling festival / union stagehand while learning and networking into lasers. I can build a stage and am a climber with harness. Need help climbing an insane stage to cable up those lasers? I got you. Zero fear of heights here. I’m also stronger than I look :) I’m also pretty proficient in video tech work as well and can run lights but I’m not a full blown LD.

No ego, no drama is my motto. I enjoy collaborating with others a lot; however I can run a show / festival stage solo with no issues. I also really enjoy teaching people who are new to lasers. It’s great to give back.

Local to NYC & New England, but I do love traveling around for various shows & festivals. Staying put is very hard for me!

I have worked an extremely large amount of festivals, too many to list. But I’ve done things as large as Bonnaroo, Lost Lands, Eforest down to small “homegrown” festivals and every festival size in between.
