With over 15 years of experience in the events industry, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality, engaging, and impactful events that align with the company's vision and goals.

My role involves managing a $1-$1.5 million annual event with 75 exhibitors and 650 attendees, ensuring every detail is executed flawlessly. I am passionate about creating experiences where all people feel seen, valued, and heard, and I thrive on fostering meaningful engagement through detailed program management and cross-functional team collaboration.
