Whirl With Merle

A lifelong foodie with an insatiable appetite for adventure, 31 year old Kate Levenstien is passionate about creating big, bold, one-of-a-kind experiences. In 2013, she brought her background in events (having worked at LivingSocial and for Oprah at Harpo Productions) and PR to the world of food and drink, launching the event management agency Cannonball Productions at the age of 26. 

Today, Cannonball's signature food and beverage festivals--from the Bacon and Beer Classic to Taco Takeover sold-out crowds across the country.

When she isn't busy making bacon and beer lovers' dreams come true, Kate loves exploring her Big Apple home. You can find her listening to live music in Brooklyn; seeking out the best ramen shops across Manhattan; or cheering on her alma mater team, the Wisconsin Badgers, from her favorite dive bar.

Her Bacon and Beer Classic events sell out in over 10 cities including New York, Chicago, Seattle, Santa Clara, Denver and Minneapolis.  She's now gearing up to host her biggest Bacon and Beer Classic in NYC to-date, at the USTA National Tennis Center on September 29th (also serving as a massive Oktoberfest celebration)
