I bring over 20 years of experience producing corporate events across Calgary’s business landscape, and I approach every project as a true partner—not just a planner. I treat your event like it’s my own, blending strategic thinking, creative design, and detailed execution to create experiences that feel purposeful, polished, and seamless.

I’m known for my energy, honesty, and calm-under-pressure approach. I lead with solutions and act as the central producer and strategic lead for your event—bringing together trusted vendors, managing budgets, and keeping every moving piece aligned with your goals. My clients value my transparency, my ability to anticipate challenges before they arise, and my knack for making complex events feel manageable (and even fun).

Most importantly, I genuinely care. I’m invested in your objectives, your guests’ experience, and delivering events that leave a lasting impression long after the room clears.

I’ve spent nearly two decades working alongside Jennifer James Events, helping bring complex productions to life with calm, care, and intention. I love turning moving parts into seamless, meaningful experiences—for clients, venues, and guests alike.

I hold a Bachelor of Communication and Culture and a Bachelor of Education from the University of Calgary, and I’ve worked across multiple industries while traveling to more than forty countries. Those experiences shape how I connect with people and approach each event with curiosity and perspective.

Why you’ll love working with Jessica:
Jessica is steady, thoughtful, and incredibly intuitive. She sees the big picture while quietly managing hundreds details behind the scenes. When Jessica is on your event, you can breathe easy—she’s already three steps ahead and deeply invested in making everything feel effortless.

I’ve spent over 20 years planning, producing, and pivoting through live events—often behind the scenes, always making it look effortless. With a background in communications, marketing, and experiential design, I balance big-picture vision with attention to the tiniest details.

I earned my Event Management Certificate from Mount Royal University, where Jennifer and I met in the very first class of the program. I’m known for anticipating needs before they arise, staying calm when things get “event-interesting,” and keeping the energy positive and polished.

Why you’ll love working with Shawn:
Shawn is the person you want in your corner when things get complex. he’s calm under pressure, sharp on details, and brings a quiet confidence that keeps everything—and everyone—on track. He makes hard things look easy, every single time, all with a dose of humor.
