What our clients have to say:
“Katy Reece has been an integral part of the Volvo Groups aftermarket marketing success. Thanks to her leadership and guidance, we have hosted two 1500+ events which are attended by executive leaders, suppliers and dealer representatives. Each one was touted as “the best Volvo sponsored event of the year”. Katy has ALL of the required skills to assist your organization and maximize their marketing efforts. Her leadership, organization, industry knowledge and experience, as well as her work ethic, all but guarantee you a homerun on any project in which she participates! Katy is not a consultant, she is part of the Volvo Team and comes with my highest recommendation.

No matter where my career takes me Katy will be my go-to for all event, production and logistics needs!

“I had the pleasure of working directly with Katy on 7 separate, very complex corporate events over the period of almost 3 years. Katy's ability to manage every aspect of a program is remarkable. She handles the unexpected with ease because there are very few scenarios she hasn't already considered or encountered. From managing venues, communications, and attendees, to programming content, developing visual identities, and every detail in between - Katy's got it covered. I can't say enough about Katy's consummate professionalism and the vast range of her talents. She goes above and beyond on every project and consistently delivers successful events and flawless experiences.
- Megan White
- Marketing Projects Manager
- Volvo Group
“Katy was an invaluable member of our team for several months, as we put together our annual global health conference (2000+ virtual participants attended). She organized schedules, wrangled moderators, thought of every detail, kept everything running on time. Even when under tremendous pressure, she was a consummate professional who led with the utmost warmth and kindness. She was agile, jumping in (without being asked) wherever we needed her. She was versatile: able to navigate uncertainty unflappably, keeping everyone around her calm and steadying the ship when necessary. I can't recommend her more highly. If you are looking for someone who has a grasp of the big picture, but never wavers on the details, you will find that in Katy!
