I also help book with our celebrity guests and I recruit amazing vendors to be a part of our show. Nerd Con is this magical place and the best part is that I have a hand in it, along with my good friend Jerry Shafer, the great people from the Chambers County Library System, the City of Mont Belvieu and Eagle Pointe.em.

Jay Cody






Celebrity Handler Lead


I am Jay Torres. At Nerd Con, I run the handlers and celebrity guests. If the guests have a problem, need something handled, need someone to run interference, or have an issue, the handlers that I work with or myself will take care of it. We make sure that everything is easy so that the celebrities can focus on the fans and the show runners can focus on the overall show. Outside of Nerd Con, I've run an IT consulting business for 20 years, mostly doing server work for professional practices. I've set up automations and worked with law offices and veterinary clinics, as well as some apartment companies. I do run ops and logistics for several other conventions, but I am mostly a guest handler for other conventions." Not every family can afford to come to a convention, and Nerd Con makes it possible so that anyone can walk in and be part of it. That's what matters to a lot of families and to myself: the access for people to be included and to experience the convention side so kids can be a part of it and see how conventions are. They even get to meet some celebrities, purchase some great items, and see great cosplayers. That's the part that I love the most about Nerd Con: they make it so families can do this together.
