“Carrie and I worked together on the Board of Directors for MPIWSC, when she was VP of Education. Carrie is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional and organized. She delivered amazing educational programs for our chapter, our highest rated events ever! We could always count on her to get the job done, and she was a true pleasure to work with!”

She was prompt, knowledgeable and willing to do whatever we needed to make sure the event was a success and the guests were well taken care of, including making sure that gifts and amenities were delivered appropriately.” “The Eau Palm made planning seamless.” She appreciated that the resort made hospitality rooms available to guests for the afternoon after checkout, and she liked the many outside venues available for evening functions — some with cozy fire pits — as well as the city nightlife nearby.

Shout out in article from client Destinie Ames with Moe's Southwest Grill. “Our event manager, Carrie Zimmerman, stood out,” says Ames. “Carrie was fun and helpful. She handled last-minute changes with ease and went above and beyond to ensure that our needs and expectations were met. The hotel is also a beautiful property, from the gorgeous spa to the fun and bright hotel décor.”
