Presenting Atlanta isn’t a company. It’s us. We’re a fun, hard-working bunch who have each been hand-picked (a practice that’s now illegal in 17 states and Puerto Rico) for our skills, attitudes and creativity, which we apply daily to help your events live up to, and exceed, your wildest expectations. All of which, in our professional opinion, is pretty extraordinary.
Richard, is our version of Indiana Jones. Richard gets amazing things done while dodging traps, poison arrows, high-strung caterers and the occasional angry native. Meanwhile, he’s busy making sales proposals, working with clients, talking with Atlanta’s Convention & Visitors Bureau, hotels, restaurants, band managers and everyone who’s anyone in town. He’s earned his stripes as a Principal after working over 20 years at Presenting Atlanta.
We were in quite a state when we hired Georgia (aren’t we lucky her name isn’t California Van?). Georgia is a Partner at Presenting Atlanta. She has created hundreds of events and is loved by each and every one of her hundreds of clients. They love Georgia because Georgia loves her work, whether she’s arranging shuttles for thousands of event-goers, booking a jazz trio for an intimate evening or finding a Cirque act to perform high above guests’ heads at a welcoming reception. Georgia should be on your mind. We guarantee your event will be on hers.
Sydney is an Atlanta native and uses her local expertise and hospitality experience to give her clients the inside track as a Presenting Atlanta Account Manager. Sydney has worked for the Ritz, St. Regis and Four Seasons — the Atlanta luxury hotel trifecta. She knows where the kitchens keep the good caviar and makes sure her clients get it. She’s also summited a Patagonia glacier, had a paper presented at the World Engineering Conference and owns a dog-cat named Billie. Expect the unexpected with Sydney.
Tracey is Presenting Atlanta’s accountant with almost 20 years of corporate experience. This is not his first rodeo and knows what he’s doing. But he’s no boring bean counter. He’s from a country due west of Atlanta called Texas. Tracey lived in Lubbock, Texas – the home of Buddy Holly—a rock and roll legend who coincidentally looked like, well, an accountant. Tracey loves Tex-Mex food, the Dallas Cowboys and his favorite actor is John Wayne. So relax, pardner. Tracey is a straight shooter who knows where every buffalo nickel is being spent.
Lynn Ford, Presenting Atlanta’s Director of Operations, is the best tour guide since Sacagawea. Remember her?? Hint, Lewis and Clark! She knows Atlanta’s history better than Margaret Mitchell and knows the City’s streets so well taxi drivers ask her for directions. But Lynn’s contributions to Presenting Atlanta go beyond just designing and leading tours. She works closely with the entire team and provides back-up wherever and whenever it’s needed.
His official title at Presenting Atlanta is Assistant Director of Transportation, but like everybody else around here, Casey does more than just one job. He helps with all kinds of logistics for our clients and relishes the fact that no two days are ever alike. Give Casey a challenge and there’s nothing this car-loving entrepreneur can’t do.
The sense of urgency is never lost on Sloane Ramsbottom. The moment her coffee cup hits her hand, she’s hard at work! That’s great news for you (and your event), because she loves checking things off your to-do list! If you’re looking for the latest trends in events or fashion, consider Sloane to be Presenting Atlanta’s very own in-house influencer. Growing up in Macon, GA she dreamed of living in Atlanta–and now this Georgia peach is ready to make all of your wildest event planning dreams come true! When she’s not bringing your event to life, you’ll find her gazing out at the Atlanta skyline watching the city’s skyscrapers light up. Like a glass of champagne, Sloane is bubbly, fun and the life of your Presenting Atlanta party!
