What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, creativity, and professional growth.

I am an experienced events professional with a proven track record of delivering exceptional experiences. My journey began with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art History from Concordia University, where I graduated with distinction. Since then, I have honed my skills in event planning and management, working with diverse teams to create memorable events that align with organizational goals.

In my most recent role as an Events and Experience Specialist at Sun Life, I coordinated high-profile meetings and receptions, ensuring seamless execution and exceptional attendee experiences. I excel at collaborating with business partners and vendors, managing logistics, and maintaining a keen eye for detail. My previous experience as a Special Events Manager at One Tree Planted allowed me to lead innovative event formats and manage budgets effectively, driving continuous improvement through post-event evaluations.

My core competencies include excellent communication, strong organization, and a collaborative spirit. I thrive in environments that value teamwork and employee growth, and I am eager to bring my skills to a company that shares these values.
