Member Highlight
Luke Cepheid
Ticket Buyer Support
Meet Luke Cepheid, a vital member of AttendStar’s customer service team; he is 27 years old and a native of the Philippines.
Luke’s day-to-day responsibilities range from helping coordinate with our event ops team to make real-time adjustments to helping alert venue staff of potential issues, fielding phone calls about event specifics, and guiding customers through the checkout experience. It’s not uncommon to see him go above and beyond with our ticket buyers to help ensure they get the best experience possible.
Since AttendStar’s inception, our history and early beginnings started with our president and founder, Gary Bradshaw, who had the opportunity to develop and promote some of the most prominent artists in the Christian Music scene from the late 1980s through the early 2000s.
As a promoter, Gary understood the commitment and sacrifice artists had to make to improve their craft and the intensity they put forth in their singing and developing mastery of stage presence.
It’s my privilege to showcase one of our very own, Luke Cepheid, a vital member of our Customer Service Team and Ticket Buyer Support.
— Gary Bradshaw, President of AttendStar
Luke acts as our first line of defense in helping bridge the gap between ticket buyers and our clients by fielding calls, answering questions via chat or email, and finding solutions.
Beyond Luke’s work performance, he possesses a God-given talent for singing and a deep capacity for the performing arts. Luke’s passion and commitment to pursuing his dreams in music are something to applaud, especially while working and being an active member of his local community!
Luke is an outstanding individual who reflects the commitment and enthusiasm I hope to see in every member of the AttendStar team. This is a contagious quality and one that I want others to carry into every area of their lives, especially while at work.
I’m excited to see the fruits of his labor and wish him the best of luck at WCOPA 2023 (Anaheim, CA, USA) in July 2023.
Luke’s positive attitude, work ethic, and diverse talents make him an instrumental team member. Thank you for all your contributions to AttendStar!
