She joins the LA Clippers organization with 25 years of venue industry experience. Colwell will be responsible for the operations and programming of the Kia Forum and Intuit Dome leading into and following its opening in 2024. Colwell steps into her new position on Monday (October 24) and will report to LA Clippers President of Business Operations, Gillian Zucker.
“Becky has earned a reputation for creating best-in-class experiences for all who step foot in the venues she leads and will help us continue to achieve new standards at the Kia Forum and Intuit Dome,” said Zucker.
Colwell is an experienced venue leader and spent the past seven years as the GM of the Greek Theater while also serving as the Regional Director of Booking for ASM Global’s Western Region.
