Elisa oversees events, PR, Social, Research, and Content & Creative Services. With Elisa leading the BlogHer events business, it has grown from a single conference hosting 300 attendees in 2005, to many diverse events that hosted nearly 4,000 attendees in 2014. Elisa’s work leading consumer insights and public relations has resulted in coverage from many leading media outlets, including USA TODAY, New York Times, Washington Post, Advertising Age, Forbes, Fast Company, CNN, CNBC Squawk box, CBS This Morning, TODAY Show, the Wall Street Journal, and more.
Together, BlogHer’s co-founders were named among Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Entrepreneurs in 2013, in the Ernst & Young Winning Women Class of 2011, and among the seven most powerful people in new media by Forbes Magazine. In 2011, they were jointly awarded the PepsiCo Women’s Inspiration Award and in 2008, the Anita Borg Institute Social Impact Award. Elisa has also been honored as an NCWIT Hero, an AlwaysOn Power Player, and as one of the AWM’s Sixty@60.

Notable past BlogHer speakers in the past have included: President Barack Obama, Martha Stewart, Katie Couric, Kerry Washington, Jenny Lawson, Arianna Huffington, Sheryl Sandberg, and Amy Sedaris. The event recently celebrated its 10th year. FABlogCon’s own Jenny Sprague spoke at BlogHer Food this past year and Elisa serves as a founding advisory panel member for the Food Allergy Bloggers Conference.
Elisa is a wonderful and engaging speaker as well as being an inspiring entrepreneurship success story. We hope you’ll take advantage of this opportunity to hear her message and meet with her in Las Vegas next month!
