Michelle Gustafsson is a Strategic Account Advisor at BigSpeak. Prior to joining BigSpeak, Michelle worked with WSB for two decades, first as a member of their Sales Team and then as a Speaker Relationship Manager before striking out on her own as an independent Speaker Consultant. Over the years of experience, she has developed a unique talent for assessing event objectives with a 360-degree view to make sure clients and their audiences leave events exhilarated after hearing the speakers they’ve selected and excited to apply valuable take-away ideas they can implement immediately back at the office and in their personal lives. She loves putting her passion, energy and expertise into helping clients secure the perfect speakers for their in-person and virtual events.
Michelle is based in Northern Virginia (just outside of Washington, DC!) and has lived, studied and worked overseas. She graduated in front of the Great Pyramids in Cairo, then moved to snowy Stockholm for a couple of years before eventually coming back to the States. She loves living in the DC area and attending many international cultural events this area has to offer.
In her free time, Michelle enjoys traveling, meeting new people, fun dinners and wine with family and friends, walking for miles on the beach collecting seashells and singing along with her car radio at the top of her voice!
