Emily Pierre, Client Services Manager
Timothy Pappalardo (he/him/his) created Located because the conventional process for site selection couldn’t keep up with his fast pace and persistence to locate amazing venues.
For well over a decade, he’s helped all types of organizations — from corporations to non-profits — place events worldwide. His network of social and professional connections is massive, adding great benefit to the clients he serves.
Having earned his chops in acting (he currently performs at the MET Opera in NYC), he’s attracted a number of entertainment industry clients — sourcing room blocks for LIVE theatrical touring productions, feature films and television.
Prior to Located, Tim was an Events Manager within the non-profit and corporate sections - and comes with a unique perspective. Having been a planner, he knows ALL that it takes to produce a stellar program. From small room blocks to large conventions, Tim has planned it.
When not working, Tim loves to TRAVEL — discovering new places, while spending time with friends and family. He resides in Forest Hills & Barryville, NY, and winters in Miami Beach. Tim is the proud parent of Jett, an adorable maltese/yorkie!
