• Strong relationship builder with a track record of working respectfully with sponsors, members, vendors, and community partners.
• A "can-do" problem solver who anticipates needs, adapts quickly to changing circumstances, and thrives under the fast pace of live events.

• Strong communicator who can confidently engage with diverse audiences - from small business owners to civic leaders.
• Creative thinker who brings energy and innovation to event programming, while ensuring smooth and professional execution.

• Experience coordinating large-scale events with multiple stakeholders, as well as smaller, member-focused gatherings.
