Our Team

  • John Femino

    John joined the team in 2019 and took over hosting the boil. This event was a great opportunity to use his passion for both bringing people together and helping the community. He can be found running logistics of the day and is your go to guy for any questions.

  • Jason Green

    Jason's love of crawfish began during his childhood in Houston. Jason began this annual tradition in 2011 to share his love of crawfish with his new found Boston family. As the Boil Master, you'll usually find him at the crawfish pot or at the table and he is always happy to chat!

  • Amir Emami

    After some time overseas, we are excited to welcome Amir back in 2024. Amir grew up in Houston spending many many hours at the crawfish table until he couldn't feel his mouth from all the spices. You will be able to find him at the pot cooking up deliciously spicy crustaceans.

  • Carly Nesson

    2024 was Carly’s first time at the Boil and is managing the music portion of the event. She comes to us from Charleston with roots in South Dakota and is a Logistics Queen. If you want a signature from one of the band members, she’s your in.
