Michael Navarro

Senior Producer

As Senior Producer at The Dufour Collaborative, Michael Navarro brings 15+ years of experience building world-class live events, entertainment, and experiential programs for some of the biggest names in business and entertainment including Microsoft, Google, Amazon, the NFL, POLITICO, Marriott, TD Bank, Porsche, and the White House Historical Association.

Michael’s career began as a performer and show developer inside some of the world’s premier entertainment destinations — Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, Universal Hollywood, and NBCUniversal — where he spent a decade shaping large-scale live show production, including contributions to world-premiere Harry Potter franchise productions with Warner Bros. and special events for the Super Bowl, Saturday Night Live, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. That foundation as a performer and choreographer evolved into a career as a show director and executive leader, giving him a rare dual fluency: creative vision paired with operational rigor.

He went on to rise through progressive leadership roles at high-end corporate event production firms — from Operations Manager to Creative Director to Vice President — owning corporate event strategy and live entertainment execution at scale for Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 brands. As a Show Director, he called live shows for marquee entertainment engagements, and his live hosting and on-camera work spans stadium-scale audiences of up to 80,000, multi-day enterprise conferences, and national touring productions for brands like Feld Entertainment, Apple, Coca-Cola, and Dynatrace.

Michael attended the University of Central Florida for a BFA in Musical Theatre and is fluent in Spanish.

At The Dufour Collaborative, Michael brings this full-circle blend of large-scale production expertise, executive leadership, and creative instinct to help bring unforgettable moments to life.
