With 20+ years across marketing, social media and event coordination, I now specialise in supporting workshops, retreats and live experiences so the lead-up feels organised, intentional and promoted. I bring both structure and calm to the process. Messaging clarified, promotion planned and all the moving pieces looked after so events don’t feel rushed or overwhelming to pull together. If you’re planning an event and want someone experienced keeping things moving while you focus on the experience itself, I’d love to connect.
