Owner, Your Event Staff

Jennifer Suber

For the past 25+ years, Jennifer Suber has actively planned and implemented events for companies and non-profit associations across the country. In 2010, Jennifer left her position at a statewide nonprofit to start her own event planning business called “Your Event Staff.”

Her extensive past experiences in Development positions give her a unique prospective, allowing her to work well with companies who sponsor her clients’ events. Without a doubt, however, her true passion lies in event planning – managing the details and creating the experiences for thousands of people each year.

Jennifer’s client base ranges in scope from black-tie dinners for 400 people, to large-scale community events, to tech conferences with 5,000+ people in attendance.

Owner, Help Is Here

Christine Rose

With 20+ years leading Global Events for a Silicon Valley tech company, Christine learned first-hand how to manage large-scale events and what kind of help is truly valuable. She brings project and event management skill and expertise to the table that is refreshing, approachable and ideally, delightful.

Christine's goal for Help Is Here is to partner with great organizations and provide oxygen to over-taxed teams through short to long-term project support.

Christine has built her business with a focus of 2/3 tech sector and 1/3 social sector. This
ratio reflects how she wants to steward her talents and experience, so clients in both sectors benefit - social clients receive accessible pricing and tech clients can leverage her expertise in socially beneficial engagements.

A Silicon Valley native and a daughter of German immigrants, she inherited her father’s love for the outdoors.

He has held Chief Financial Officer and other senior executive roles in companies ranging from the global Fortune 500 to closely held businesses in manufacturing, professional services, software and marketing industries.
