Leadership

The team behind the night.

Saguaro Nights Entertainment Group is led by founders Cary Prewitt and Melissa Levick alongside Partner Lauren Keeton and Director of Membership & Events Nina Garcia — a team built around hospitality, design, and the long view of what the Southwest can become.

Cary Prewitt

Lauren Keeton

Partner, Brand & Partnerships

Lauren leads brand and partnerships at Saguaro Nights Entertainment Group, building strategic collaborations across hospitality, lifestyle, and culture. Based in Phoenix, she works at the intersection of brand storytelling and operational execution — connecting Saguaro Nights' venues with the people, brands, and creators shaping the Southwest.

Lauren brings a background in brand-building and partnership strategy across hospitality and lifestyle categories, with a particular focus on the rooms, rituals, and relationships that make a venue feel magnetic and impossible to forget.

She's drawn to projects that turn rooms into destinations and brands into experiences — and is helping shape the next chapter of Saguaro Nights as the company expands beyond Pablo's.

Nina Garcia

Director of Membership & Events

Nina leads membership and events at Saguaro Nights, building the private hospitality experiences and programming that give the group's venues their pulse. Based in Phoenix, she owns the guest journey end-to-end — from the first invitation and buyout inquiry to the rituals, dinners, and nights that turn a room full of people into regulars.

Nina brings a background across hospitality, member programs, community-building, and live events, with a particular focus on the small, deliberate details that make a night feel unrepeatable.

She's shaping Saguaro Nights' membership and events program from the ground up as the company opens Pablo's and expands into the wider Southwest.
