We’re headed to the Home of the Blues, Memphis, for this episode where we chat with Crystal Carpenter, Event & Marketing Coordinator at FedExForum. In a city known for its culture, music, soul, and food, Crystal tells us all about FedExForum, which is the home for the Memphis Grizzlies (NBA) and Memphis Tigers (NCAA). We discuss her role with the building and some of the unique ways their departments are structured. She tells us about fun promotional ideas they have done with local businesses and how her role, which is nested under the Arena Operations side, focuses on being in the community, working with promoters and managing show day experience and hospitality. Crystal also tells us about being a DJ, which she has done for over 17 years, and co-founding SheDJs, which is a network of over 50 women DJs who support each other. We learn about her career journey from being an athlete to her time in radio to managing a record studio that worked on GloRilla’s debut hit album. Enjoy this fun, creative episode full of inspiration, grit and grind, and creative ideas.
