If CCEN had a heartbeat, this would be it.

Meet 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮 𝗥𝗮𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗻 — co-founder of 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 (𝗖𝗖𝗘𝗡) and the behind-the-scenes wizard keeping our event pro community thriving.

💼 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 & 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
Vanessa co-founded CCEN alongside Krissy Arnal with one goal: real connections. She oversees day-to-day operations, manages and updates the website, trains new committee members, and keeps the entire machine running smoothly (aka organized chaos, but make it cute).

🌟 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗩𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀
Vanessa also runs two powerhouse businesses:
• 𝗩𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮 𝗥𝗮𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮: Specializing in social media and email marketing, website and graphic design, content creation, admin support, planning, and event coordination.
• 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵: Luxury photo booth and 360 video experiences that turn events into core memories.

🌱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿
Networking is kinda her thing. Vanessa is also:
• Co-Founder of 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯
• Founder of the 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸
• Moderator for 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝘀𝘁 (Santa Maria meetings)
• Active member of the 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲

🏡 𝗢𝗳𝗳-𝗗𝘂𝘁𝘆 𝗩𝗶𝗯𝗲𝘀
When she’s not building communities or businesses, Vanessa is soaking up time with her two daughters, foster daughter, a dog, two cats, and approximately too many houseplants 🌿. She loves sunsets, birding, and anything that lets her breathe outside for five minutes.
