ABOUT ME
Current Program Associate at the Cardiovascular Research Foundation.
Hi, I’m Brianna 👋
I plan and run large-scale international conferences, and I genuinely enjoy the challenge of making complex programs feel seamless, organized, and actually enjoyable for the people involved.
In my current role at the Cardiovascular Research Foundation, I work on global medical meetings with 10,000+ attendees across 100+ countries. That means juggling a lot of moving pieces,coordinating with physicians, managing speaker logistics, aligning schedules, and stepping in onsite when something inevitably needs fixing (because it always does). I’m someone who stays calm in those moments and figures things out quickly.
What I enjoy most, though, is improving how things work behind the scenes. I naturally look for patterns—recurring questions, friction points, inefficiencies—and use that to refine systems so each program runs more smoothly than the last.
Before this, I worked in program coordination roles supporting large-scale initiatives across hundreds of organizations, and I also have a background in user research. That experience shaped how I think: start with people, understand what they need, and build from there.
I’ve worked in remote and hybrid environments for most of my career and am comfortable collaborating across teams, time zones, and fast-moving situations.
Outside of work, I love traveling (especially solo), exploring new cities, and getting a change of scenery—anything that helps me reset and come back with a fresh perspective.
