Having planned everything from intimate dinner parties to corporate/charity gala’s, Heather firmly believes in the adage “It takes a village,” and attributes her success to her meaningful client relationships and industry partnerships with talented vendors.

A native Long Islander, Heather entered the events world in the not-for profit sector. In addition to her Executive Director duties, during her tenure at a LI based nonprofit, she simultaneously planned annual galas, award ceremonies, golf outings and community fundraisers, including private social gatherings attended by some of the region’s most respected philanthropists, politicians and community leaders.

In 2010 Heather became Director of Special Events & Director of Design for Manhattan-based Fourth Wall Events where she continued to be recognized as an events industry leader with her impeccable attention to detail and perfect execution of turning corporate client dreams into unforgettable experiences. During her time at FWE Heather lead a team of Project Managers that planned, produced and custom designed a variety of high-profile Fortune 100 corporate/incentive and social events in New York City and globally.

As an avid collector and supporter of art, Heather’s approach to event planning and producing coincides exactly with the many definitions of art:

  • At its highest form, brings people together.
  • Is something you invest YOURSELF in as a means to communicate.
  • Is a collaboration of individuals coming together to make a statement.
  • Is typically defined through expression and applying human creative skill and imagination.
