September Member Spotlights!

Each month NACE New England showcases individuals from our chapter in order for fellow members and followers to get to know how amazing our diversity in membership really is along with the qualities and characteristics of those members.  Please meet the members highlighted this past August!

Meet Fausto Pifferrer, Owner of Blue Elephant Events and Catering

-  What did you study in school?
I was a free spirit and traveled a lot.  A lot of my studying took place outside of classrooms!

-  What would people be surprised to know about you?  
That I collect vintage Snoopy and Charlie Brown memorabilia.

-  What one word would your best friends use to describe you?
Loyal.

-  What qualities make your business/company distinctive?
I am a hands on owner. I book my events, attend my events, set up and break down my events. I know all of the clients who come through our door. Also, when people come in to meet with us, we are genuine. We are who we are. We are normal people, and our clients get to see that.

-  What qualities do you most admire in your colleagues?
Professionalism and loyalty. Both go a long way!

-  What kind of projects would you love to work on?
I would love to design and do a runway event in Milan. From set up, to logistics, to breakdown. I think that would be amazing!

Meet David DiCicco, Director of Design and Sales at Marc Hall Design

-  What did you study in school?
I studied international business and finance at the University of Tampa, but while I was abroad in Rome, decided to drop the international business part for hip hop and Latin dance classes. Needless to say, I graduated with a finance degree only, but can dance my way through any wedding.

-  What would people be surprised to know about you?
I have an obsession with fire that I attempt to tame through the use of candles.

-  What one word would your best friends use to describe you?
I’m sure my best friends would have quite the list, but I’ll go with resourceful.

-  What qualities make your business/company distinctive?
Marc Hall Design is dedicated to the highest level of service and personalization of design. Conceptualizing and executing take a certain talent and I’m proud to say our team and the partners we select perform both pretty seamlessly.

-  What qualities do you most admire in your colleagues?
Originality, loyalty and confidence. I have the upmost respect for anyone who can confidentially and proudly build trust with their client by being themselves and, of course, delivering a killer product.

-  What kind of projects would you love to work on?
I’ve been dying to design an over the top pool party brunch. Location and client to be revealed.
