Meet Kelly

Hi! My name is Kelly Panniello. I was born and raised in Massachusetts. I received my Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Business with a concentration in Event Management at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester, NH in 2012. After college, I worked for a conference company as an Event Coordinator planning conferences for the pharmaceutical industry which included multiple trips back and forth from Boston to Philly and some other fun locations like San Diego, Chicago, Orlando, and Amsterdam.
My next career stop included planning events internationally as a Corporate Events Manager for the forest products industry. I was able to travel the world and work with several different cultures. I was fortunate to make two more trips to Amsterdam in the Netherlands, two trips to Shanghai, China, and also made my way to Brussels, Belgium, Spain, UK, Germany, Sao Paulo and countless cities in the United States. In addition, I also worked on events in South Africa, Portugal, Lebanon, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.
Amidst my international work, my husband and I put down roots lakeside in Salem, NH in 2017 where we spend our free time relaxing on the water with our golden retriever, Riley. We enjoy going for boat rides on the pontoon, fishing and paddle boarding. Shortly after we welcomed our beautiful boy, Jake during the pandemic in 2020. After a year home with my son and the world somewhat going back to normal I knew it was time to get back into my passion of event planning.
I am the proud owner of Events by Kelly Ann. I am excited to open my portfolio up to both corporate events and special occasions. From elegant weddings to corporate meetings I will execute your event with a positive upbeat attitude making sure all your needs are met. I thrive on attention to detail, professionalism and hard work ethic; therefore can ensure that all my clients are completely satisfied.
