# Rachel Fan > Events @ Sequence Events Location: United States, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/rachelfan 🪴 Hi there! I’m Rachel, an event and wedding planner with experience in production, logistics, and communications. I am driven by my passion for the creative and working with people to create memorable experiences. 🔮 I discovered this path while organizing my university’s first UX hackathon, where I found myself just as intrigued by the logistics, coordination, and storytelling as the design itself. Since then, I’ve supported events for Sequence Events, led community-driven projects, and built brand experiences from both creative and operational angles. 🩷 With a background in UX design, I bring unique value to events, thinking through the guest journey, managing chaos with calm, and making sure every detail feels intentional. ## Work Experience ### Event Production Assistant @ Sequence Events Jan 2025 – Present | New York, United States Supporting the production team in sourcing, managing, and delivering critical supplies for corporate events under tight timeline Coordinating communications across vendors and internal teams to ensure seamless logistics and timely project updates Tracking production tasks and timelines, proactively identifying and resolving issues to keep event deliverables on schedule ### Event Production Assistant @ Sequence Events Jan 2025 – Jan 2025 | San Francisco Bay Area ### Wedding Planning Associate @ oso events -
