Testimonials

“As the official supplier of security services for BC Place, I was in a position to work with Eugenia on many occasions over the four years she was there. I was always impressed with her ability to oversee and run large events, particularly her attention to detail and organizational skills. As the event manager at a large stadium, she had to coordinate multiple departments while still ensuring the client was well looked after and had all their needs met. Eugenia enjoys a challenge and will always do her best to give every client the finest experience possible.”

“Eugenia very quickly became an extension of our team, and someone we had complete trust in.

I have worked directly with Eugenia, through Rockdoc Consulting, on several events over the last 5 years. Eugenia is detailed oriented, highly organized and an all-around exceptional event professional. She is a leader and goes above and beyond to ensure the success and safety of her events and all of those who attend her events.

I have always enjoyed working with Eugenia and am grateful when we can work together on a project. I would highly recommend Eugenia to plan, organize and lead events!

I worked with Eugenia for 4 years on the BC Place management team. Eugenia, brings a great mix of service excellence, passion, enthusiasm, time management and leadership skills. Whether leading a massive concert, soccer, football, trade shows or charity events, Eugenia was competent, successful and a pleasure to work with.

Wayne Smith

Director of Human Resources at BC Place Stadium, PavCo

From the start, Eugenia caught me with her professionalism. We met at an event she organized. I didn’t pay attention to what was going on. I was very interested in her ways of organization. I’ve decided that I want her to organize my next event. I was beyond thrilled when she accepted to help me.

Eugenia is responsible, passionate about what she is doing, has great energy, and is a true professional. She was very careful and attended all my needs entirely. She ensures that your event is a true reflection of your personal style and taste. She is always aware of everything, making sure everything goes well. We have created a lifetime relationship. I look forward to my next event.
