Okay, let’s tackle this. So Ellen Webb has a broad range of event planning skills, but her experience is mostly in the service industry. I’d compare her to event coordinators or managers in the same industry. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, event coordinators in the New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-PA Metropolitan Division typically earn around $44,000-$60,000 per year. Considering her skills and experience, I’d estimate her hourly rate to be around $75, which is slightly above the average event coordinator rate. However, this is a rough estimate and may vary based on her specific experience, industry demand, and other factors.
