Education

• BFA- New Media Studies
  Ryerson University

Unique in her field, Ms. Stechyshyn's background in New Media Studies has given her in-depth knowledge of audio visual equipment that most planners do not gain for many years, and allows her to get the best possible products and services out of her A/V suppliers. As well, she also spent a great deal of time creating interactive art pieces- immersive skills that she brings to every event she works on!

• Graduate Certificate- Event Management
  Seneca College

One of Seneca's first Event Management graduates, the program allowed the students to step right into the event design team's shoes on several major Toronto events, as well as building rapport with caterers, florists, A/V companies, and other event planners. Ms. Stechyshyn maintained contact with many of these suppliers and uses all of the skills she was taught to create the most fantastic events for each of her clients!
