Noelle started at 25N as the Community Manager of 25N Arlington Heights, and quickly leveraged her background in events management, contract negotiations, and community-forward programming to grow the membership base by 25% in the first year alone. She also demonstrated an innate ability to take high-level concepts such as “community-building” and make them systematic and replicable. Unsurprisingly, Noelle’s events are always a smash hit.
Now, Noelle’s contribution to the 25N team combines her expertise in events and programming on a corporate level, ensuring all events and programming across 25N locations have two crucial “it” factors: operational excellence, and a strong fun streak.
Noelle plays an integral role, from planning and coordinating venues, staffing, catering, transportation, and equipment for sound or video, to conducting market research to tailor 25N’s corporate events to the unique needs of any given community, to holding tight reins on the budget and negotiating pricing accordingly (which, we assure you, takes special talent). In short, Noelle Villicana is a growing company’s dream hire.
When not building the infrastructure that makes 25N thrive, Noelle is a true-at-heart adventurer. She has been known to take international weekend trips and still be holding it down on an 8AM Monday call. She spends other weekends biking in the Chicago suburbs, making music with her indie band, and/or obsessing over bulldog puppies.
