| Your Reunion Planner ~ Jill Jeffcoat brings 16 years of event planning experience in the Dallas/Fort Worth marketplace to our staff. Local to the area and an alumnus of Grapevine High School (she won't let us tell the year!), her career began in 1988 when she landed a job at the newly-opened Grapevine Convention Center. It was here that her relationships within the hospitality industry began. In 1990, Jill was promoted to a sales manager position with the Grapevine Texas Convention & Visitors Bureau. She spent the next 12 years promoting and selling Grapevine and the Dallas/Fort Worth area as a meeting and convention destination to the Texas markets.
During this time, her memberships in such industry fellowships as Meeting Professionals International, Hotel Sales & Marketing Association International, The Society of Government Meeting Planners, Texas Society of Association Executives, and the Dallas/Fort Worth Society of Association Executives provided an extensive education in the meetings and special events industry.
Jill says, "Working with Reunions Unlimited has given me the opportunity to come full circle in my career. It allows me to bring my knowledge of the local market and my experiences within the hospitality industry to the reunion committee. Who could ask for more? After all, the planning of the event should be as fun as the reunion itself!"
