About Rachel Selby

My true passion is serving others, and managing events allows me to do that in the most fun way possible!My experience began as a waitress after high school. Throughout college, I worked as a banquet server and bartender for galas, fundraisers, and weddings at several country clubs and catering venues in Dallas. I graduated with my Master\'s in Hospitality Management from UNT and obtained my CMP (Certified Meeting Professional) certification in 2014. My 10-year journey as an Event Manager has taught me so much about attendee behavior and how to create extraordinary experiences. For the last three years, I have enjoyed managing IBM\'s proprietary events and third-party tradeshows with George P. Johnson Experiential Marketing where I continue to learn and grow every day to provide the very best experiences for my clients.
