Habeab Kurdi

From deep in the heart of Austin, Texas to the lively Baltic Seaside city of Gdynia, Poland — Habeab has a passion for unearthing the nuances that bring the best out of people.

Habeab’s never been afraid to take some lumps to learn vital life lessons, knowing that’s what makes us all more empathetic, well-rounded and engaged.

He loves learning something every day, taking those transferable skills and trying his hand at new, rewarding challenges. Habeab transitioned from an award-winning journalism career spanning nearly two decades, to running events and managing several service industry fixtures, before blending those talents together as a marketing and communications writer for startups and corporate ventures alike.

Equally comfortable running anniversary parties, elegant pairing dinners, taco pop-up restaurants, craft beer celebrations, or working demanding beats at the Chicago Sun-Times and Austin American-Statesman — he relishes sharing stories and experiences with audiences so they can create connections and irreplaceable memories all the same.

Juggling the logistics of satisfying crowds for highly anticipated sold out events spurred his passion to bring people together and connect them to shareable moments across all walks of life, around the globe. As the Senior Copywriter for Tagvenue, now he gets to help guide fellow party planners and event organizers toward ease of mind with insights that break down the barriers and help them bring that same joy to whomever they’re hosting, where it may be.
