Testimonials
“If you are looking for someone who will breathe life into your events while simultaneously keeping a tight ship, then you need Haley Clarke.
In a matter of just a few short years, Haley renewed the marketing program at Halifax Jazz Festival. Making it fun and approachable, while creating results that directly contributed to ticket sales and increased engagement.
Haley is someone who does not take her commitments lightly, who believes fully in the work that she does, delivers results and shows up every day with as much pizazz as her signature colour (pink if you couldn't tell). I couldn't recommend her enough.”
Tenille Goodspeed, Executive Director, Halifax Jazz Festival.
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Haley on a number of major projects, including the JUNOS, the East Coast Music Awards and the Mi’kmaq Artist Emergence Program (MAEP), and she has consistently been an incredible asset.
What I value most about Haley is that she is someone I can trust. She is collaborative, effective, adaptable and always willing to step in where needed. She understands the bigger picture, pays attention to the details and brings a warmth to her work that people respond to immediately.
Haley has made a real contribution to the success of every project we’ve worked on together, and I look forward to having her continue to be a part of my team in the years ahead."
Andree Gracie, Owner/Producer, Grey Sea Artist & Event Management
“Haley came on board to support our special events connected to the Canoe ’26 ICF Junior & U23 and Masters World Championships, working within incredibly tight timelines and under significant pressure. To say that Haley’s contributions were instrumental to the success of our events would be an understatement. From the moment she joined the team, she brought a level of expertise, positivity, and professionalism that made an immediate difference. She consistently brought thoughtful suggestions and solutions to the table, while also being incredibly receptive to feedback and willing to adapt when circumstances changed.
Large-scale events are inherently stressful, and bringing another contractor onto a project at such a late stage can sometimes create more work rather than alleviate it. Haley was the complete opposite. She immediately became someone I could trust, rely on, and confidently hand work over to without hesitation. Having someone with her expertise and approach come alongside our team was genuinely refreshing—and, quite honestly, made my life significantly easier.”
Jessica Kenney, Senior Manager, Canoe ‘26
“Haley Clarke brings a unique combination of energy, organization, and authentic enthusiasm to her work with the East Coast Music Association. Her ability to find the right tone for the most challenging VIPs, the most difficult suppliers, and the most unconventional musicians—and get the best out of them all—is unmatched. We are a better event, and a better organization, for her presence and participation.”
Bob Hallett, Executive Director, East Coast Music Association
“Haley was integral to the execution of the first ever FamFest Altantic. She has the rare capacity to anticipate challenges and solve them before you even know they were a problem. She has the gift of gab and can make anyone feel special and heard. Haley is exceptionally organized, reliable, and no matter the time of day, shows up bright-eyed and ready to tackle anything. Having her on site instantly ensured our sponsor activations were professional and well executed. Thank you! .”
Allegra Swanson, Founder and Operator, Atlantic Fam Festival
“Haley planned the launch event for our documentary series and magazine at the Halifax Central Library, and she thought of things we hadn't. A great example: she prepared framed photos for our participants, and tucked two extra prints in the back of each frame in case someone preferred a different shot from the series. That's the kind of detail guests remember. She's thoughtful, organized, and genuinely cares about how people feel in the room. I'd work with her again without hesitation."
