A little about me.
Hi, I'm Jess. I've spent more than a decade behind the scenes of conferences, annual meetings, and all kinds of professional events. I love taking something complicated, figuring out how all the pieces fit together, and making it work — while building great relationships along the way.
To me, a successful event is about more than a smooth run of show. It's about understanding what matters to your organization, making smart decisions, and paying attention to the details that make a real difference.
When I'm not working, you'll probably find me planning a vacation, enjoying a good glass of wine, or spending time on the water. I take my work seriously, but I don't think everything has to feel so serious.
What I do
Here's where I come in.
Whether you've got an annual meeting on the horizon, a sponsorship program to rethink, or a project that could use an experienced set of hands, I can jump in where you need me.
02 / THINK BIGGER
Event Strategy & Growth
A fresh, practical look at sponsorships, exhibits, registration, attendee engagement, and revenue opportunities — with a plan to make your event work harder for your organization.
03 / GET IT DONE
Project & Operational Support
Flexible help with event operations, processes, special projects, and ongoing event leadership. The experience you need, without adding a full-time position.
“Your annual meeting should be a growth engine, not just a logistical lift.”
The difference
There's a lot that goes into making it look easy.
Good events don't happen by accident. They take experience, thoughtful decisions, strong relationships, and someone who can see what's coming before it becomes a problem.
I'm hands-on with the details, but I never lose sight of the bigger picture. When we work together, I become an extension of your team — invested in the people, the process, and the outcome.
