As Director of East Coast Regional Sales for Destination Cleveland, I work with meeting professionals, association leaders, and third-party planners to bring impactful events to Cleveland. My primary focus is citywide meetings and conventions requiring 400+ rooms on peak that are sourced from the East Coast. I also serve as Destination Cleveland's dedicated HelmsBriscoe specialist for citywide events requiring 400+ rooms on peak, regardless of where the business is sourced. I help clients navigate the complexities of sourcing, contracting, and executing successful programs across our destination by partnering closely with planners, associates, hotels, and venues to identify opportunities, remove obstacles, and develop creative solutions.

What I enjoy most about this work is finding ways to get to "yes." Whether it's a complex citywide, a program with unique venue requirements, or a challenging timeline, I collaborate with Cleveland's hotels, venues, and community partners to create experiences that deliver value for planners and attendees alike.

Cleveland offers the amenities and infrastructure of a major convention destination, combined with the accessibility, affordability, and authentic hospitality that today's groups are looking for. I love helping clients discover what makes our city special while connecting them with the resources, partners, and opportunities needed to host exceptional meetings and events.
