@melissaprice
I coordinate conferences and guest experiences, keeping event logistics, registration, and on-site operations running smoothly.
What I'm looking for
I coordinate conference planning and guest experiences, with recent work supporting the Disney Data and Analytics Conference as a contract Project Event Coordinator.
I manage event timelines, task lists, communications, registration, transportation, accommodations, sponsorship inquiries, and ROI-report preparation. On site, I serve as a point of contact for setup, registration, and last-minute troubleshooting.
At Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate, I supported conference managers with group conferences, event materials, client-request documentation, meeting logistics, and final detail confirmations. I also built guest-service experience at The Grand Hotel Resort and Spa, assisting with check-ins, check-outs, guest needs, and cross-property coordination.
My background also includes training new Chick-fil-A team members and traveling to grand openings to onboard staff and engage with the community. I bring attention to detail, strong communication, problem-solving, and a commitment to a 5-star guest experience.
