About Kathryn Lazell

With years of experience creating and executing events and programs across different industries, I thrive on organization and connecting the dots. My passion is giving people access to ideas, industries, and relationships that they wouldn\'t ordinarily come across. I am adept at deep-diving into the many minute, logistical details needed to execute a flawless event, quick to jump in and problem-solve, and able to keep an eye on the big picture. I love relationship-building and working with new people. When I\'m not at the office, you can find me trying out all my local coffee spots, attending spin classes, or taking long walks to pick and press flowers.
