Hello! My name is Michelle Daciolas, and Chicago is my home. The people, the places, the skyline, the Lake... there's no place I'd rather be.
If you're looking to host a unique event in Chicago, look no further. Event sales are what I do best. The best part about it is, no day (or event) is ever the same. I am a hard working, friendly, driven, energetic team player with over 12 years experience in catering and event management. I also enjoy building sales organizations from the ground up - opening organizations downtown Chicago and downtown St. Louis, as well as expanding Daytime event sales at one of Chicago's world-class museums.
I've had my own tennis instruction business in the Chicago suburbs for over seven years and was very successful in the planning, marketing, implementing, and evaluating my tennis programs. Every now and then, I do miss teaching. If there was a way to combine my passion for events and tennis, I'd be in career heaven. But I do love the sport and take full advantage of every too-short Chicago summer to get out and hit.
My skills in business management, special event planning, and public relations is what makes me a strong candidate for any position. The ability to adapt to change and be quick on my feet thanks to Second City and iO Chicago doesn't hurt, either.
