- Overseeing all elements of execution, from venue sourcing and design to guest experience and post-event recaps.
- Leading relationships with agencies and external partners to maintain high-quality delivery.
- Adapting event strategies across in-person, hybrid, or virtual formats — leveraging the latest tools and tech.

- Managing multiple events simultaneously, each with high attention to detail, deadlines, and team coordination.
