Event Rescuer – I am the superhero on the day of your event.
Hi, I’m Tess . #EventProfs call me to rescue their events at the ninth hour.
Early technology adopter in the Events space: Digital Events Certified since 2013, spent countless hours troubleshooting, supporting & educating people on their tech (software, hardware, tech stack setup).
MY WHY
As a kid, I followed my sister, a master cosmetologist for a major hair care company, on the road as she designed tradeshow experiences. The backstage logistics; working with models & A/V teams; the rush of managing the chaos. I caught the events “bug” – and haven’t looked back since. Eventually, I joined Macy’s Special Events doing fashion show production - a wonderful first step.
MY WHAT
Proudly now count 25+ years’ experience in event planning, production & technology. After being one of the earliest adopters of tech in the Events world, I began supporting people in the Events world through event tech training, ideation & execution.
MY HOW
My superpower is doing last-minute drop-ins for tech support & tech management on the day of an event, large or small. After running events at Spelman College (500,000+ attendees), I spent the last 10+ years at TEDxAtlanta as a Stage Manager. Went on to build & launch iSocialExecution, an event rescue & execution firm, with the guidance of my mentor, Dahlia El Gazzar. iSocialx was built to help event planners with technology & event production support when they need it most. Event professionals are like family to me – and I’m always ready to support the family.
