Event Management

With over 10 years experience organising events and running marketing campaigns for communities, companies and organisations, I have the 21st century experience you need to bring together and entertain your audience. I organise and host quiz nights, fundraiser events, book clubs, philosophy cafes,  and various other community, corporate and private events. Whether part of a large team running 500+ person events, or single-handedly running 20 to 120 person events, I can provide advice, assist or run your event for you.

"The meetings were very valuable. Like having a trainer at the gym."

MC/Hosting & Performing
I'm regularly performing in some way or another. In addition to the above examples, I've also chaired and facilitated various discussion groups including 'philosophy cafes' and book clubs.
I also...
  • Studied Meisner acting technique & vocal technique
  • Regularly attend Improv Comedy classes & perform at  showcases
  • 6 months co-hosting & conducting interviews on live radio 
My signature high-energy, mildly comedic stylings will help keep your audience entertained and informed. Leave it to me.

Marketing & Viral Marketing
Here are some ways I work to improve events
  • An extra pair of eyes to look over your flyer or event programme designs
  • Mystery shopping & market research 
    I attend your event as a member of the audience to give feedback on negatives you should eliminate, and ideas of how you can improve customers' experience to boost repeat patronage
  • Consult on the planning and execution of your pre-event marketing
    e.g. 
    customer profiling & targeting; traditional and digital advertising to attract customers; networking opportunities, representation & negotiation
  • Running viral marketing campaigns to boost numbers through the door
