Bio
Andrea Wright, President
Andrea has more than 10 years of experience in Events, Marketing and Communication. She is well-connected in the complex and ever evolving marketing and events industry.
Andrea met the challenges of serving as the Senior Manager of National Event Marketing for Jones Lang LaSalle. By clearly defining the needs and goals of the business and its clients, she planned and produced events that strengthened the firm's brand and market presence, drove sales and enhanced its client relations.
As Director of Marketing and Operations for Graymont Equipment Distribution and as Communications Manager for Groupon, Inc., Andrea integrated sales, marketing, communications, and project-management as essential components of event planning and successful event outcomes. Working closely with top-tier national conference, trade show, and event organizers, she directed the nuts-and-bolts of conference planning and troubleshooting from strategic assessment; to securing venues and contract negotiation; to on-site event coordination and logistics; to post-event evaluation.
Andrea first discovered her passion for events at the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, managing all aspects of the pre-conference, on-site, and post-conference trade shows and exhibit sponsorship for more than 7,000 attendees.
