Just the help you need

Just the help you need Making your life easier ... Done with ease behind the scenes... Each year I managed Fleet Week aboard the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. From Time Warner Inc.
(9)

I began my event career at the USO of Metropolitan New York where I worked on large scale events for Servicemen and women. Yes, throughout my years at the USO I worked the piers and boarded many Naval ships welcoming the Fleet to Manhattan. From the USO I moved onto The New York Philharmonic where I honed my skills with more niche events. At The Phil I ran corporate fundraising events, The Opening

Night Gala and the Young New Yorkers for the Philharmonic events. Here I worked with top social and corporate leaders in the New York area. In my role at The Phil I learned how to expect much from my vendors and is where I honed my event skills while working with my boss and mentor. I was taught to always exceed customer expectations and always find creative solutions to problems. Personalizing each event so my client is proud of the delivered product. I have continued this thread through my career. From concept to reconciliation I always have an outgoing and friendly demeanor. From The Phil I moved on to Time Warner Inc. While I was with Time Warner I worked with the Board of Directors, handling their meetings, dinners, executive forums as well as the Annual Shareholders meetings and all Subsidiary CEO Events. This position brought me national exposure where prior to this I worked solely in New York City. I stayed within the company and took a position with Global exposure at Fortune Magazine. Here I ran events at the CEO, CIO, COO, CFO level. Working with Heads of State, a variety of Government leaders and corporate leaders to bring the pages of Fortune Magazine to life. Creating brand extension while providing a venue for Global Leaders to create greater synergies. My greatest experience at this time was producing the Fortune Global Forum special side meeting with the top 50 Global CEOs in Beijing China. This meeting was with President Jiang Zeming and Premier Zhu Rongji and a highlight in my career. I then created my own event firm called Event Representation & Production. I considered this company a “virtual company” of sorts. Which, like today, I bring in experts to each event as needed. I always used tried and true vendors since I believe I am only as good as my last event. I also represented other companies who would use me on the ground while holding their business card. The companies I produced for were WWD where I ran a Beauty Summit in Evian, France to Business 2.0 to Ruder Finn. Loyalty and trust are what I expect from the people around me and what I offered these companies as I worked for them. A client would never know I was not with the company I was representing. Honesty and integrity are very important to me. In 2004 I stopped working to have my children but when my youngest daughter started Kindergarten I became aware of many parents stressing over events within their own families and thought, I can help! So I started Just the help you need! I quickly found my niche. Today, as earlier in my career, I appreciate each opportunity I am trusted with. I work on each event with a goal of exceeding my clients expectations. Since 1991 I would always tell my staff, “Never forget we are the help”. Years later, here I am, the help, at Just the help you need.

I remember meeting Henry Kissinger the first night of the Fortune Global Forum in Budapest.

For some reason when he first entered the building he made his way right over to me, shook my hand and said “I hope my office was not much trouble for you”. To which I answered, “none at all”.

Little did he know that I started my first day on the job with Fortune IN Hungary so I had no problem with his office… I had never talked with anyone in his office 🤷🏼‍♀️.

Later we spoke about his cameo on The Simpsons. Great memories from what feels like a lifetime ago. Rest in Peace Honorable Henry Kissinger.
