Hi, I’m Carol — the creative force behind Canvas Events New York. I’ve spent more than a decade managing award-winning hospitality venues and producing experiences for Fortune 500 companies and global brands such as Samsung, Salesforce, and BlackEnterprise. My work has shaped brand stories, built global communities, and earned features in Forbes, NBC7 Chicago, and FashionWeek Online.

Now calling Cape Town home, I’m on a mission to position Africa as a leading destination for global events by addressing the structural barriers that limit access, investment, and visibility across the industry.

At the heart of everything I do is one goal: for people to walk away feeling seen and celebrated. That belief shapes how I build, how I create, and how I connect with the people and places around me.
