Candace is the driving force behind a vibrant team of seven registration associates, masterfully coordinating the launch of more than twenty event registrations each year. Her role encompasses the detailed orchestration of complex logic sequences, catering to a variety of registration categories for attendees, exhibitors, and sponsors. With six years of dedicated service, Candace has been a key witness to the evolution of our client’s annual events, consistently enhancing our processes for improved efficiency.

In 2023, Candace played a pivotal role in forging a groundbreaking partnership with Swoogo event management software. This collaboration was instrumental in the smooth migration of our existing registration forms and the innovative design of new ones on this platform.

Candace's contributions extend beyond mere registration; she is pivotal in leading the team to develop and maintain over eleven event websites for our long-term clients. These sites are subject to ongoing optimization and updates, performed in close partnership with our clients to ensure superior functionality and user experience.

From the initial launch of a conference site to the final stages of badge printing, Candace's team is thoroughly involved in every aspect of event management. Their responsibilities include integrating payment gateways, handling outstanding payments, managing replacements, responding to inquiries, and accommodating event-specific requests. Candace also oversees the procurement and printing of name badges, guaranteeing a seamless on-site experience. Our clients enjoy the advantage of real-time access to extensive reporting and analytics, available through a specialized landing page.

On the conference management front, Candace offers invaluable assistance to the team by actively participating in the logistics of five major events each year. Her involvement includes managing audio-visual setups, coordinating catering services, handling transportation logistics, organizing accommodation blocks, designing floor plans, sourcing vendors, conducting thorough research, placing premium orders, and supervising staffing requirements.
