Tell us a bit about yourself!

Iā€™ve been in the wedding industry for more than a decade, collaborating with event professionals from small businesses to large enterprises. Iā€™m a marketer, content creator, and business strategist, but ultimately a relationship builder at my core. And Iā€™m a huge supporter of women-owned businesses – obviously!

What drew you to Rock Paper Coin?

Going into this next chapter, it was really important to me that I work with founders that I fully align with on the values front and I certainly align with Elizabeth and Nora. Theyā€™re not only awesome female founders but they deeply care about the people that power our industryā€“which frankly made it an easy choice knowing that they have all of our backs in the industry.

What are you most excited about for the future of RPC?

This role presents an exciting opportunity to continue creating simplified and streamlined payment solutions tailored to the events industry. I canā€™t wait to collaborate with a female-founded brand that shares my dedication to service, financial education, and innovation.

I am super passionate about creating more financial transparency in our industry, having more real money talks, and finding ways to ensure that every business that powers our $100BN dollar industry has access to best-in-class fintech products. We really havenā€™t even begun to scratch the surface.
