Rockstar Task Master
As an Event Manager on the Content team, I drive the discussions and decisions around content strategy, focus and themes for client events and never settle for anything less than execution excellence. With over 13 years of corporate marketing and project management experience in a variety of technology industries, I excel in client relations, strategic planning, and program development. I pride myself on being pleasantly persistent and, like Santa Claus, I love making a list and checking it twice.
I really enjoy being on the same team with some of the best event planners in the industry! Together, we collaborate to deliver incredible results that thrill our clients and provide meaningful experiences for hundreds of thousands of people every year, all over the world. It’s incredibly rewarding.
When I’m not working, I’m usually with my husband and our sidekick rescue pitbull, Axel Foley or going to/coming from a variety of fitness activities such as Pilates, indoor cycling, and strength training.

Design Magician
I create visual concepts that inspire, inform, and captivate. Part of my job is to help you communicate your ideas through consistent event branding, signage, advertising and inspirational design.
In my role I really enjoy creating something that is visually inspiring.
Outside of work, I love to make people laugh out loud, and I will often take bribes in the form of espresso. I love nights by the fire, long walks on the beach and of course spending time with my beautiful wife and daughter. My trips to Italy inspired me so much that I made my own wood fired pizza oven and took up wine making.

Alexis Paulin
Staff Accountant
Dances with Numbers
My job functions in the finance department consist of preparing and executing processes aligned with the accounting world. As a staff accountant, my daily routine consists of assisting the Controller on a variety of tasks, AR/AP, payroll, month end reconciliations, and GL maintenance.
I LOVE NUMBERS! I love trying to figure out why something isn’t balancing correctly and determining a solution to resolve the problem. I appreciate the freedom to develop a process that assists in streamlining a function to make the data and the numbers flow more smoothly.
Outside of work, my two handsome boys help me flourish as their mother. We love to listen and dance to music, watch movies, do arts and crafts ,and spending time together in our ministry work. My favorite time of the year is summer – sitting poolside with family and friends while our children play, outdoor hiking and camping adventures, and outdoor music concerts fill my time outside of work. During the other seasons, we still enjoy life in the Northwest clouds and rain and do our best to maintain a positive environment.

Our work supports all aspects of partner sponsorship sales, logistics, and expo management.
In my role, I enjoy working with our Dynamic Events team to bring each client’s vision of excellence to life.

Allison Magyar
Chairwoman of the Board / Owner
Tech Maven
With over 20 years of event planning experience, I have an intimate and thorough understanding of the daily needs and struggles of event planners today and a clear vision of how to use event tech to help solve them. For two decades I’ve traveled the world, planning and executing events from small dinners to city-wide conferences with tens of thousands of attendees. With this knowledge I created a Hubb in 2012, a software that event planners can use to manage and organize their speakers, sessions and sponsors at events.
I thrive off the fast pace nature of this industry and the need to put solutions together that help streamline process and provide better ROI and data for events. While I don’t have a direct day to day role at Dynamic Events, I enjoy mentoring and helping to support others in developing in the meetings industry.
Outside of work, I love to cook, eat, drive fast cars, spend time outdoors and with my husband and two kiddos. I often find myself powerless to wanderlust and love exploring the world and all its diverse culinary offerings.

On events big and small, I work closely alongside the client in understanding their vision. My passion lies in exceeding expectations and strategically bringing my client’s vision to life.

After 33 countries down, this wanderlust traveler cannot satiate his thirst for adventure.

Professional People Connector
I get to partner with companies that are looking to implement a new event!

I really love being able to strategize and be creative on how to help companies achieve their goals in a fun and unique way. We have such a passionate team here at DE and I enjoy working with all the different dynamic individuals working to accomplish the same goal.

My job is to oversee the overall process and strategy for events and expos. I help guide clients to ensure that their event is produced to the highest quality. I have to work quickly and think outside of the box to put out “fires” that occur throughout the planning and execution of an event. Organization and teamwork is essential for the success of any event that I am part of.
I love being able to take a vision and turn it into a reality. Nothing makes me feel better than seeing a client in awe of the completed project that I managed. The process to get to that completed project may be difficult and stressful, however, in the end, the final outcome is rewarding.
When I am not working, I am always trying to find time to fit in a barre class, a run on the beach, or a cycle class. Traveling is my passion. I have been to 23 countries (and counting) and 6 continents. I also love soccer, and I love to cheer on the LA Galaxy.
