Creative Strategy for EventsBarcelona, Spain
About me
With more than 15 years’ experience in events in Spain and Europe, I started out with the basics, learning about every aspect of event planning, gradually working towards leadership roles. I now organise and manage corporate and creative events with hundreds of attendees. I oversee all areas of the event planning and creative production, which ensures that fewer mistakes are made and every decision carried out compiles with a comprehensive overview. So what does “A tu Vera” mean? This popular phrase in Spanish means “By Your Side”. This is how we roll. We’re by your side throughout the entire process. We guide and lead your company, searching for outstanding solutions, crafting creative events to suit your needs.

  • Creative Strategy - Virtual Events
    Creative Strategy - Virtual EventsJust a few weeks into the pandemic, I had to quickly adapt to the new reality, learning how to transform in-person experiences to virtual formats.

Over the course of three days, visitors arrived in a steady stream, eager to discover Colvin in-person. Workshops and plant coaching by experts were also offered, allowing people to create their own floral arrangements and learn more about plants. Almost no

  • Creative Event Producer
    Creative Event ProducerDuring autumn 2017, different Renaissance hotels were invited to execute their own version of The Navigator’s Table Dinner Series for approximately 12-16 guests. Renaissance Hotel Barcelona was one of the chosen locations for the The Navigator’s Table Dinner Series. This special dinner was to be presented as a blank canvas in order for the food to be the clear protagonist.
