Meet the Owner
I’m Adaobi. I started Events in a Crunch to offer streamlined event planning for anyone in a time crunch. When we say “anyone,” we mean ANYONE. That’s why we take pride in supporting all love stories, honoring every event budget, and doing it in as many languages as we can.
I spent more than 20 years planning events for startups, universities, and nonprofits—an experience that taught me how to get scrappy with any budget. We’re dedicated to bringing that same energy and creativity to every client we serve.
