Meeting, event and sales professional experienced in corporate meeting planning, special event planning, trade shows, conference branding management, sponsorship programs, venue management, business development, project management and virtual event platforms. I am a strong leader and cross functional collaborator with excellent project management, communication and problem solving skills. I knew from my first volunteer experience coordinating an event that I had found my calling! The world of meeting/event management has been my passion for many years. I enjoy the balancing act of managing multiple projects at one time. I enjoy working with all of the teams that are involved in an event from start to finish.... my client, my internal team, vendors, venues, etc. I love the creative process of special events. And I enjoy taking a client's vision for their conference, trade show, booth or special event and bringing it to life!
