Chelsea Tafoya - Party & Grand Opening Host EPK

Chelsea
Tafoya

Grand openings, ribbon cuttings, launch parties and premieres. I welcome your guests, spotlight your brand and turn your big day into a moment people talk about.

I've hyped 70,000 fans in a stadium and hosted hours of live TV, and I love an intimate room just as much. Every crowd gets the same energy.
