Jen Barakat

Years of experience as an event producer (feel free to specify professionally, as a volunteer, with UW, elsewhere, etc.)

I enjoyed three years serving as an assistant to Traci Gaydos (event producer extraordinaire!) and have benefitted from many years of coordinating volunteer events outside of work.

Areas of expertise:

• I typically host events for 1-20 people.
• Most of my events are school/department/unit specific.
• I have a p-card/facilitate expense reconciliation

I typically plan events for:

• Faculty/staff

Favorite advice about events:

Be flexible and roll with changes as they come!
