Today, Theresa an integral member of our marketing team and manages firm events across the nation. She builds strong relationships with vendors and is a tireless advocate for her clients. Theresa always looks for ways to take events to the next level, on time and on budget. She understands strategic goal of the event and structures activities to achieve those goals. I would recommend her to any company large or small.

American Marketing Association's (AMA's) Marketer of the Year is the Association's signature event. Think wedding level budget and planning with a whole non-profit board as the bride. The events were spectacular. Theresa's big ideas are always sprinkled with a dash of problem-solving. Organized and a budget stickler, but still quite fun to work with, Theresa adds value waaay beyond her fee.

The Cancer Caring Center hired Theresa Kaufman to help launch Pittsburgh Rock ‘N Legends- a multi layered event which encompassed an awards ceremony, a VIP performance and a full-blown concert. Theresa is super creative and added memorable touches such as an aerialist, celebrity lookalike musicians, specialty drinks and themed appetizers, etc. Equally important, Theresa is appropriately financially conscious – she is very inventive but stays within budget. I particularly admire that she is calm throughout the entire process. She anticipates and addresses inevitable issues and deals with them efficiently and quietly. Her contact list is enviable – she ALWAYS knows someone who specializes in whatever is needed.

If you're organizing an event, I highly recommend you get in touch with Theresa Kaufman Events. Theresa and her team helped the International Free Expression Project put on a rather elaborate fundraising party. They did a smashing job. They were professional, efficient, creative and knowledgeable. Their experience enabled them to anticipate problems and head them off. Give them a call. You'll be in good hands.

Theresa is more than a great event planner… she is a great partner!
I feel like she is part of our team – understanding our needs, wants, brand, and vision. Theresa is very creative, dependable, and a great negotiator…
I could not imagine conducting one of our events without her.
