Her Story
About Debra
My career started as marketing director for an international solid-state laser company after college in a male-dominated industry. I moved to Hilton Head and worked with marketing guru Karen Serrati, specializing in plastic and reconstructive surgery marketing. After having kids and freelancing for plastic surgery practices, I partnered with Jillian Marto to found Events of a Lifetime, creating immersive corporate events and galas that have won awards.
