Deborah Kattler Kupetz is an authority on “green” event planning, a career that sprung out of her combined passions for social action, environmentalism and community building. Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to found dkkevents, which has produced hundreds of eco-friendly events for law firms and other corporate clients, helping them create successful events from both a memorability perspective as well as a return on investment.
