Tammy Dickerson, is the Founder and Lead Planner of tbg Events. Celebrated as a tenacious powerhouse,
Tammy oversees illustrious affairs from installations and social galas to fundraisers and corporate
conferences. For over twenty-seven years, she has partnered with politicians, global organizations,
celebrities and business tycoons on the curation and production of their events.

An extensive background in business marketing and sales made Tammy the savvy and meticulous event
curator she is today. She moved up the ranks quickly in her early corporate career overseeing projects
including the Super Bowl and Olympic Torch Relay in Los Angeles as well as numerous regional and
national sales meetings, sales rallies and trade shows. She soaked up a wealth of knowledge and
experience that boosted her confidence in the industry.
A later role at Coca-Cola relocated Tammy from Texas to Los Angeles where her career would take on a
different face. An opportunity to manage The Inner-City Economic Summit with Vice-President Al Gore as
the keynote speaker altered the trajectory of her career. Tammy resigned from Coca-Cola and managed
the summit under her own company, The Baker Group. This high-profile event would be the first of many
and set the tone for her success as an event expert.

Institute. tbg Events, as it’s now known, produces over 30 events annually with anywhere from 50 to over
15,000 guests.

standard at tbg Events. Tammy has guided the steady growth of tbg, now an international company with

assembled a phenomenal team of planners to manage them. Tammy finds joy in the journey of guiding
her clients through the process of actualizing their ideas and concepts from start to finish.

International Southern California Chapter (MPISCC), National Association of Women Business Owners
