JOHN KOUKIOS - CEO

I’m John Koukios, the CEO of Pacific Coast Entertainment. I’ve been in this industry for eight years, and I’ve always had a passion for sound, stage and lighting. Honestly, I can’t imagine doing anything else. My beautiful wife, sara, and I have been married for more than five years. She’s always been and continues to be my greatest supporter and source of strength. When I’m not working or spending time with my family, I’m pursuing one of my favorite hobbies. Cars have always been a passion of mine—especially my 1966 Mustang. I also love boating, scuba diving, climbing and dirt-bike riding. I’d like to thank my family, friends, co-workers and, most definitely, PCE clients who’ve helped make Pacific Coast Entertainment what it is today.

RYAN STEIDINGER

I’m Ryan Steidinger, and I’ve been with PCE since it was first envisioned over that large pizza! While my role here at PCE is Chief Operating Officer but, it’s not limited to that. I tend to do whatever I can to help the company grow and thrive. PCE is my passion, and it’s become a big part of my life. I live with my wonderful wife, Melissa, and our roommate, Kile, in downtown Huntington Beach. I have a few hobbies that DON’T involve work—a large garden and koi pond, for instance. I’m also involved with a railroad museum as the volunteer Vice President of Visitors Experience. The museums mission is to preserve and exhibit southern California’s living Railway history. In the personal realm, I’m focused on purchasing a new home and having something to fix up!

KARLI KRUEGER

I am Karli Krueger and I joined PCE’s Boys Club as the Executive Assistant, relieving John and Ryan of certain daily tasks so they can focus more on the growth of the company.  I graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a degree in Art History and Theatre.  I am ecstatic that my Theatre experiences paid off and I am able to use my education at PCE.  My first observations of the company were that of teamwork, motivation, professionalism, and absolutely knowing how to have fun!  When I’m not at PCE I enjoy being active with my dog, Zeppelin; traveling; going to concerts; and watching sports.
