Bio
Shannon Nel
Animated, organised and full of ideas are the words that comes to mind to describe Paige. I had the pleasure of working closely with Paige for about 6 months in the Marketing and Events department at Umhlanga Arch. Paige brought an energy and confidence to our team, leading the team to secure and manage of an array of successful events. Events under Paige's management were always received with high compliments of praise from the client, this due to her dedication to meeting and exceeding client needs and expectations as well as her and impeccable communication skills. Ensuring the excellence of the Umhlanga Arch brand remained constant in all representation was something Paige valued highly and for this reason we were sad to see her go, however we wish her all the best for her new adventures in Abu Dhabi. by Shannon Nel
