Natalie Kruska first joined Live Nation as an intern during her senior year at UNLV. In the eight years since, she has risen steadily through the ranks to her current position as the senior director of marketing for Las Vegas Residencies. Just last year Kruska oversaw the marketing of more than 600 residency shows.
Working in the music industry has been a goal of Kruska’s since she was very young, and working with iconic artists has been a highlight of her career. Kruska said that helping sell out shows for the Garth Brooks residency was a full circle moment since his music was a staple in her home growing up.
As part of her work, Kruska donates show tickets to support local charities such as the Boys & Girls Club of Southern Nevada, the Shade Tree, the Animal Foundation and the Shania Kids Can Foundation. “The opportunity to give back to the community that has given me so much has been rewarding,” said Kruska.
Kruska enjoys traveling, trying to visit one of her bucket list locations every year, and hanging out with her corgi at the Bark Park in Henderson.
