Ariana "Air" Gradow

Ariana has worked on a team with many corporate large scare conferences including being on the backend development team of Google I/O. She has also worked on the marketing end of IBM Interconnect, VMWare, and Crowdchat. In 2014, Air quit her job with Google to chase her dreams and join the circus. She attended Frequent Flyers Aerial Dance School and began performing with professional circus companies after graduation. She then went on to form Denver's largest Circus School, the Circus Collective.
In 2020 during the pandemic, she sold the Circus Collective to her business partner to move home to the mountains and bring the magic of the circus to her hometown of Aspen. There she formed Art of Air, which is a unique experiential event and entertainment company focusing on bringing magic to corporate and private events. Find out more here: (link hidden)

Thousands of people were changed and moved by the experience, and the event was featured on NPR, and the front page of Aspen Daily News, Carbondale News, Sopris Sun, Aspen Times, and more.
