Hi!! I'm Kayla Menkes, obsessed with all things events, partnerships and community in NYC!

I am currently the Head of Growth Marketing at Pepper the App, so if you need a recipe idea- I got you :)

Brand partnerships are my happy place. Stick me in a room with five strangers from different organizations who need vastly different things from Maxwell and I will thrive. I can put on an event with my eyes closed. Give me $5,000 or $500,000 and you will have an event as great as the Kardashian Christmas Party (or an event that is the complete opposite, that one is up to the client). Spreadsheets and checklists are my love language, although I am a huge pen and paper girly. Both partnerships and events are an art and I make sure I have all the tools to be successful.

Above all else, I am about leading with empathy and passion for people, partners and clients. My passion lies at the intersection of creativity and connectivity. I love bringing people, brands and creators together in ways that are unexpected and exciting  

Experience: At Binghamton University's School of Management I earned my Bachelors of Science with a Concentration in Marketing and Entrepreneurship in May of 2022 and my Masters of Business Administration in May of 2023. Over my career, I've worked at KPMG, Empire State Realty Trust and RealINSIGHT.
