About me
With over eight years of experience across a range of different businesses, I have consistently demonstrated the skills required to deliver creative and high-impact events. I am passionate and driven, implementing projects on time and within often limited budgets, working either independently or as part of a wider team. In my current role as Community Events Lead at WeWork, I manage the delivery of high-quality events for the members of the WeWork Devonshire Square campus and the surrounding community, with the aim to enrich the community and increase overall brand recognition.
