What I'm looking for

I seek collaborative roles leading large-scale events where I can own budgets, optimize operations, elevate attendee experiences, and drive measurable ROI.

I am a Senior Project Manager with over six years executing high‑profile in‑person, virtual, and hybrid events for Fortune 500 clients, managing six‑ and seven‑figure budgets while ensuring 100% client alignment and satisfaction. I partner cross‑functionally with Creative, Production, Legal, Compliance and vendors to deliver compliant, on‑brand experiences on tight timelines.

I have led 75+ events annually, supervised large event staff, and implemented thematic design, AV enhancements, and sponsorship activations that elevated attendee engagement and measurable ROI. I am committed to operational excellence, data‑driven post‑event reporting, and collaborative team environments that deliver strategic, repeatable impact.
