Bio
Lauren Powers
I worked with Destanye at Phoenix Fashion Week for several years as Media Director. During this time, her work on the Media Team was not only impressive, but crucial in the success of the organization. She was a breathe of fresh air to work with - always came early and stayed late and the hardest working individual on my team. In addition, her event planning and detail-oriented logistics expertise helped organize our year round calendar of events and coordinate the numerous media team duties needed. These included event setup/breakdown, interview coordination and leading our video crew, as well as capturing social media content and more. All with a big smile on her face :)
