As the Project Manager for River Network’s 2024 River Rally conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I oversaw all back‑end operations that kept the event running smoothly, including session solicitation, selecting awardees, and shaping the overall program. I partnered with local artists and graphic designers to create branded collateral. I authored and distributed external marketing materials that helped us reach the 400‑attendee registration goal, attracting water advocates from across the United States and Canada. The conference delivered a joyful, inclusive experience that provided meaningful benefits for participants and the broader water advocacy community.

What Was River Rally 2024 Like?

💡 “This was the best conference I have ever been to. It was so energizing to be around people who care so deeply about people, the planet, and the water that connects all of us.”
