Heather was part of Burning Man's senior executive and event operations teams for almost 20 years. She oversaw year-round technology and design services for the organization, which expanded to a team of 50 supporting 72 mission-critical infrastructure departments during the event. She produced the official Burning Man wall calendar, photo edited the website, directed a team of photographers, and helped produce a huge number of staff retreats, leadership conferences, special events, and so much more.
For several years starting in 2019, Heather joined a Bay Area tech startup Enklu, where she produced and designed high-throughput immersive augmented reality holographic attractions using cutting-edge technology on the Microsoft Hololens for events, brands, and their own venue in downtown San Francisco. At least until the pandemic put a stop to all that fun.
