BizOver Event at Neiman Marcus Michigan Ave
From my colleague Valeria Basso:
Just a reminder about the event I'm co-hosting on Feb. 24 at Neiman Marcus on Michigan Ave. We already have over 100 people registered, so it's guaranteed to be a great networking opportunity for all attendees. Plus, we are going to have complimentary luxury makeovers (for women AND men), food, cocktails, professional headshots, prizes and more. And, if you register, you might help me win the co-hosts' contest, for which I will be forever grateful to you ;-) !
Note: When you register, you'll be asked who invited you, so be sure to select Valeria Basso. If you want to take advantage of the makeover, you'll be able to book your time slot in advance.
