Meet EventBuilder’s Leaders

Lauren

Lauren Meyer

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Lauren is our virtual events vanguard. As CEO, Lauren fearlessly leads the EventBuilder charge with the kind of “big picture” perspective that powers the company. She propels us forward into the future while maintaining a laser-sharp focus on our defining value: Compassion for our customers, each other, and ourselves.

Renee

Renee Conlee

Chief Operating Officer (COO)

Renee is our strategy wizard. Like the great and powerful Oz, the magic you see is made possible by COO Renee's behind-the-scenes operations mastery. From security to systems to employee support, she’s the mortar to our bricks, the super to our glue, the laces to our (soccer) cleats. Renee is the engine that keeps us moving.

Robin

Robin Houser

Chief Technology Officer (CTO)

Robin is our unshakeable, red-headed bot herder. In her role as CTO, Robin is the driving force behind the software that powers countless events every day. Never content with, “ok, I think we’re done now,” she serves up new features and functionality to our customers on the regular, all while making it look easy.
