Slight emergency. Kristen bailed on her June talk... super lame and not cool. 

Anyone have connections to Ryan from Staplehouse and Team Heidi? I think he'd be great. 

First speaker ever to drop out! LAME! Lets go protest Caco in Inman Park! JK.

Blake-

I really need to apologize for the last minute change but we will need to leave to New York on the 27th for the Fancy Food Show.  This is a last minute change that just came up. Please let us know how we can make this up or reschedule for the next event.

Sincerest apologies,
Caline

Awesome!!! I'm so excited! 

Attached is a Speaker guide for our event. A few of the highlights:

• Sound check is 8am on June 28th
• Talk is 20 minutes / Short Q&A afterwards
• Event will be held at the High Museum of Art's Hill Auditorium
• Slide deck is due June 26th (Keynote preferred, PPT acceptable) 
• Topic/ Theme is "Food" 

Could I get from you:

• Press photo of Kristen 
• Kristen's bio

Also, as far as content goes for her talk. I think sharing her story, history of chocolate, and where the world of chocolate is heading would be super interesting. It will be a room of graphic designers, photographers, and marketing folks who will be super inspired by such a different topic, especially learning more of the science & creativity involved in the industry. I can talk with Kristen if she'd like to work through more of the talk. 

Thanks again!

Best,

Blake

Hey Caline —

Just following up from Kristen's email from last week. I would LOVE to confirm her for our June 28th event, if it works with her NY travel. The event starts at 8:30am and wraps at 9:30am. 

Our April event registration just opened today and it "sold out" in minutes! Check out the promo for the event (we try and do these every month): http://vimeo.com/64527565

Best,

Blake

Hi Blake,

I have to be in NY for a speaking engagement at FCIA on the 29th.  It is possible that if I am speaking in the morning I can fly after.  I am CC'ing Caline who will identify whether this will make sense and will follow up.

Thanks Jeff! 

Hey Kristen, 

I organize an event in Atlanta called Creative Mornings. It's a monthly breakfast lecture series for creative folks with a 20 minute lecture, free coffee, and free admission. There are 50+ chapters world wide. Our ATL chapter usually has around 250 people in attendance each month and sales out pretty quick.

I'm looking for a speaker for our "Food" theme in June, the exact date is June 28th and it will be hosted at the HIGH Museum of Art. Could we chat early next week to see if you'd be interested? 

Thanks!

Blake
