The smart solution when you require a temporary professional planner.
Welcome to my fresh approach.
About Me
Planning successful conferences, meetings and events since 1985.
High-level conferences. Summits. Employee recognition events. Cross-Canada financial product education “Roadshows”. Themed events. Sporting events. Oktoberfest beer halls. Stampede Parties and the Olympics. I’ve done it all…and more.
I’m a detail-guy. I enjoy creating the perfect situation and setting for people to accomplish their business – or to celebrate their success. Perhaps that’s why when a project wraps, clients always say, “we originally thought we could do this ourselves, but now we’re glad we brought in a professional!”
I’m a member of Meeting Planners International (MPI). I hold a certificate in Event Management from Mount Royal University and a degree from the University of Western Ontario.
My specialty is planning successful conferences and meetings for both public- and private-sector businesses. From the moment you start thinking about a conference, I come aboard to make sure all the pieces come together on time, on budget, with creativity and professionalism.
My meeting management career has included extensive, full-time hotel experience–catering management, front desk, and auditing. Along the way, I spent almost 20 years in Human Resources (Benefits/Employee Recognition).
I’ve worked on amazing conferences and events over the years – for a wide variety of clients from individuals to high tech, the arts, not-for-profit, health care, and universities.
I’m based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. But travel anywhere!

“Organizing a special evening for clients and industry stakeholders is never easy, but doing it within a few weeks and from the other end of the country can be a daunting task. From finding a location that would fit our group to providing me with insightful site visit notes, finalizing the décor just before the evening to closing all the details right after, Kevin provided valuable assistance through the entire process. He was professional and fun to work with. He always had quick and honest answers to my frequent questions. I would not hesitate to recommend Kevin to anyone who needs someone they can trust to organize an event.”
Caroline Phaneuf, Marketing Strategy Analyst, Nova Bus, St-Eustache, QC
