Tammy Koolbeck

We’re adding a new state to our adventures as Dave and Paul talk with Tammy Koolbeck based in Ames, Iowa who is the Executive Director for Stephens Auditorium, a multilevel theater at Iowa State University. Tammy is a standout in this industry and has truly done it all, from her time as past EAMC President from 1999-2004 to being past chair for the International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM), which she currently is still involved with today. In this episode she walks us through her career, and things that led her to where she is today. We get to hear about Tammy’s first EAMC 25 years ago in Las Vegas and the impact making connections at the conference has had in giving her not only lifelong friends all over the country, but something she looks forward to attending year after year. We discuss the importance of sharing ideas, mentorship, and our love of collaborating with like-minded individuals in live entertainment.Tammy Koolbeck: Facebook | LinkedIn | EmailStephens Auditorium: Facebook | Twitter | Instagram ––––––ADVENTURES IN VENUELANDFollow on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, or X/TwitterLearn more about Event & Venue Marketing ConferenceMeet our team:Paul Hooper | Co-host, Booking, Branding & MarketingDave Redelberger | Co-host & Guest ResearchMegan Ebeck | Marketing, Design & Digital AdvertisingSamantha Marker | Marketing, Copywriting & PublicityCamille Faulkner | Audio Editing & MixingHave a suggestion for a guest or bonus episode?
