About Vaneli M.

Senior-level project, operations, and event strategist, at the helm of coordinating and executing world-class sporting events and large-scale, multimillion-dollar projects for Equestrian Sport Productions and its subsidiaries for more than 13 years. My entire career has been focused on providing best-in-class guest experiences, boosting attendance numbers, and driving business revenues. Frequently called on by C-level decision makers to tackle challenging initiatives, I excel at navigating each project’s unique challenges and sidestep unforeseen issues to ensure successful delivery. Adaptability is paramount in what I do; I thrive in fluid, deadline-driven environments while gaining consensus amongst different groups and ideas. A respected team leader, I’m also committed to remaining available to and empowering staff to enable a strong workforce.**Key project and event leadership roles:** FEI World Equestrian Games Rolex Central Park Horse Show Tryon Resort/Tryon International Equestrian Center The Winter Equestrian Festival**AREAS OF EXPERTISE**Business Development, Project Management, Operations Management, Event Coordination, Logistics, Stadium & Arena Operations, Relationship Development, Facility Management, Contract Negotiations, Scheduling, Budgeting, Stakeholder Management, Team Leadership, Training & Development, Needs Assessment, Safety/Regulatory Compliance, Conflict Resolution, Client & Guest Relations, MS Office, Caterease, Adobe Acrobat Pro
