ABOUT KAREN GRISWOLD
A solid game plan makes my heart happy. Creating unique and memorable experiences is my passion. Building relationships is what fuels my soul. There is nothing better to me than watching a customer make lasting memories based on the experience you helped build. Although event planning is suggested to be one of the Top 10 Most Stressful US Jobs, there is something about the pressure and unpredictability that ignites the fire within. I am an Event Marketing Manager with 18 years’ experience in the hospitality industry. I led a team of event coordinators responsible for the execution of 300+ west coast events a year while exceeding budgeted revenue year-over-year. I have been fortunate to spend my entire career with the same company which has helped form the self-motivated and experienced leader I am today. My skills highlight reel includes: • Supervised exclusive events at 30 locations for over seven years• Two-time recipient of Club Elite award (company’s Top 1% in Marketing)• “Above and beyond” attitude to service all internal and external customers• Negotiated and executed 100s of vendor contracts • Created cohesive relationships with all levels of the organization• Developed and managed event budget to ensure cost efficiencies • Handled and resolved escalated guest conflicts
