Global Event Strategy and Programming

About

I love building internal events and programs that connect people, elevate leaders, and strengthen company culture. I see employees as clients—every experience is an opportunity to engage, inspire, and support the people who bring the company’s vision to life. From planning President’s Club trips to global all-hands and leadership offsites, I approach events with strategy and intention. While these programs are enjoyable, they’re also about recognizing effort, connecting employees, exposing talent to leadership, and reinforcing the values and priorities that drive the organization forward. I’ve built and operated internal events programs from the ground up, establishing structure, governance, and scalable processes. Partnering closely with executives, I translate strategic priorities into compelling experiences that align teams, foster retention, and empower employees to thrive.
