Creating Connection, One Room at a Time
Summer Shapiro is a vibrant, intuitive host and facilitator who brings warmth, humor, and connection to every room she leads. With a background in physical theater, comedy, and movement storytelling, she has an uncanny ability to read a space, elevate the energy, and make audiences feel both delighted and at ease.
She has hosted events, concerts, and celebrations for venues and companies including The Chase Center, Sweetwater Music Hall, and a wide range of private and community gatherings—from weddings to bat mitzvahs to milestone ceremonies. Whether performing for thousands or guiding intimate life-cycle moments, Summer creates atmospheres that feel alive, inclusive, and deeply human.
Drawing from her work as a performing artist and transformational coach, she weaves authenticity, play, and meaningful presence into her hosting. Summer helps people feel confident (and happy!) to be themselves, and she knows how to bring out the unique spark in a room—sometimes through humor, sometimes through reverence, and often through surprising, memorable moments that unfold in real time.
As an emcee, she is equal parts grounded and playful, polished and spontaneous. Her work is rooted in the belief that connection is an art form, and that every event—whether corporate, creative, or ceremonial—deserves to feel personal, alive, and unforgettable.
