Testimonials
Founder, Meet Plan Go and Ottsworld Travel
http://www.meetplango.comMeet Plan Go
Lisa's creativeness, enthusiastic work ethic, and relationship building skills were the key to her building a new audience in LA for the event. She did a great job of marketing and promoting the event. LA was a new city for us in 2011 and it was our highest attendance of our first-time cities. Her ability to organize her tasks and meet deadlines were the key to hosting a successful event. Lisa did social media marketing for the event, and conducted local public relations.
In addition to event planning, she also was the emcee for the event and utilized her presentation skills to provide critical information and deliver 'calls to action'.

Lisa is a terrific organizer, manager and marketer of events. She was able to engage a great keynote speaker as well as a panel of world travelers to share their experiences, find a good location for our evening, and attract a sold out crowd.
She coordinated all the details effortlessly and with her characteristically cheery mood. Lisa spoke very well in launching the evening and kept the excitement elevated as she outlined the agenda. She also ensured all contributors were recognized for their parts of the successful evening.
I would recommend Lisa to organize and speak at any type of event but especially those dealing with travel.
