Why I Embraced AI
I don't use AI to replace my experience. I use it to remove repetitive work so I can spend more time serving clients. After 20+ years in hospitality, I know experience still matters — but AI is an incredible assistant.
"AI should never replace your expertise — it should create more time for you to use it."
The Tools I Use
ChatGPT
Brainstorming, writing, building timelines, and content creation.
Claude
Organizing large documents, venue comparisons, and contract summaries.
Notion AI
Project management, meeting notes, and run-of-show drafts.
Canva Magic Design
Social graphics and client-facing visual documents.
✦ Venue Insider Tip
Every piece of content still gets my final review — because relationships and judgment can't be automated.
My Workflow
1
Gather notes after every client meeting or venue walkthrough.
2
Let AI organize the information into action items, timelines, and checklists.
3
Personalize everything before it ever reaches my client. I'm editing a strong first draft in minutes — not starting from a blank page.
Final Thoughts
Remember: AI should never replace your expertise — it should create more time for you to use it. The experience I've built over 20 years is what my clients are paying for. AI just helps me deliver it more efficiently.
