Jacqueline Pacheco

I've been in the events and hospitality industry for over 15 years, working across a variety of sectors including tech, human resources, and sports. I've found a really nice pocket in the tech industry where I've been for the last 6 or 7 years. When I got out of college, I found a really great internship with a company called The Bastion Group, and I worked my way up with them to become an event manager. From there, I just kind of took it and with every company, I built myself up to that next level of event planning. I've dabbled in being a full-time worker to a contract worker over the last couple years based on the opportunities and the companies to work with, and I've been very blessed to have such a great career working with these top companies, either full-time or on a contract basis. I'm kind of a jack-of-all-trades, and I'm really great at the whole logistics of events from top to bottom. My day-to-day changes depending on what's needed - this week I'm working on building out a big security plan for our upcoming conference for a big client, handling temp staffing, brand ambassador staffing, photographer and videographer coordination, but I'm also one of the main leads on that project, so I have a whole grasp on the whole event. I've done every event process and been part of that, and I've even planned weddings, so I have experience in all aspects of the event planning world.
