Meet the Team

Ian is a key team member in terms of event management and production. Specializing in agriculture events, entertainment and consumer shows, Ian’s versatility and breadth of knowledge, resources and contacts are a major bonus for any event he works on.

Ian’s many talents extend outside work. He is a proud father, self-proclaimed local ambassador, and plays multiple instruments.

Colleen has a hand in all the events that happen around the Fair Park throughout the year. Being a newcomer in the events world, she is constantly learning the nuances of each event and finding out where her niche lies. She looks forward to building strong relationships within the Fair Park and with promotors as well.

Outside of work, Colleen enjoys spending time with her cat, Marshall, and quoting lines from Gilmore Girls. You may also catch her rollerblading down by the lakefront, likely listening to showtunes, and taking a picture of the sunset.

Mikayla has a passion for people and brings enthusiasm to everything she does. Though she is new to Wisconsin State Fair Park (in this capacity), Mikayla is no stranger to coordinating large and small events. She spent 6 years at a local county fair park, assisting with year-round events as well as the annual county fair. She worked in the agriculture department at Wisconsin State Fair for several summers and was instrumental in helping streamline the State Fair time chaos. Her previous industry experience makes her a great asset to the Event Services Team.

Outside of work, Mikayla is involved in the community, volunteering with Vets Roll, and other organizations. She also enjoys spending time with her family and friends, helping on the family farm, and making bi-annual voyages to Disney.
