Jeff DiNunzio

Senior Producer & Project Management Consultant

New York  ·  Los Angeles  ·  Philadelphia

I’ve spent nearly two decades working across TV broadcasts and docuseries, live events, sports, brand activations, and journalism. I’m someone who builds the plan, manages the people, the logistics, and the budget, and makes sure the things actually get made. Doing so calmly, even when it gets complicated. (I also referee ice hockey—from youth to the NCAA and adult leagues—which is either a natural extension of my professional experience or a bizarre coincidence!)
