From intimate private gatherings and nonprofit fundraisers to large-scale corporate activations, sporting events, festivals and community events, Crystal brings a unique combination of on-stage confidence and behind-the-scenes event expertise. She understands that a great emcee does more than make announcements, they read the room, manage the energy, keep the program on schedule and make sure guests, speakers and organizers always know what comes next. Crystal’s career began in marketing and event production, working with nationally recognized brands including Tito’s Vodka, Rex Goliath Wines, Nabisco, Igloo and the St. Pete Grand Prix. She went on to build her own event company and has spent years producing markets, fundraisers, workshops, corporate and private events, brand activations and community experiences throughout the Tampa Bay area. Her experience behind the microphone includes serving for several years as both Event Coordinator and emcee for the Ohio State Alumni Football Games under former Ohio State running back Lydell Ross. She’s equally comfortable introducing a featured speaker, engaging a crowd, navigating a last-minute schedule change or quietly coordinating with a team behind the scenes to keep an event moving. Today, Crystal is an entrepreneur, event producer and small business owner who continues to produce and host events throughout Tampa Bay. Her background includes marketing, public relations, social media, and branding, giving clients the benefit of someone who understands the entire event experience, not just what happens on stage.
