Throughout my career, I have successfully led event teams through hundreds of weddings, corporate conferences, and large-scale social functions. Most recently at IBM, I oversaw 30 team members and managed events ranging from small learning events to multi-day conventions with over attendees. I take pride in developing cohesive teams that anticipate client needs, streamline communication between departments, and ensure flawless execution from planning through post-event review.
