Few have so successfully established and executed the creative vision for so many owner/operators in the immersive entertainment world as Anthony Esparza.

He was soon elevated to oversee the company's design department before moving to Charlotte, NC to head up the theme park development division for Paramount Parks. Anthony then moved to Atlanta, GA to do the same for Herschend Family Entertainment before relocating to Orlando, FL to modernize the SeaWorld and Busch Gardens parks. As if that wasn’t enough, he then helped to bring the first roller coaster to the high seas for Carnival Cruise Lines! Plan now to join us as Anthony climbs aboard the time machine for a journey back to all of these iconic roles, stories of the hundreds of projects he's developed, and the wisdom he’s collected throughout his illustrious 40+ year career.
