Corrinne Clement is a creative event professional with a rich background in theatre and entertainment. Corrinne studied Theatre at Arizona State University and went on to build a career that reflects her passion for community, people, and the fullness of life.

Her journey has taken her from directing youth theater programs abroad in China, to performing professionally with Disneyland Shanghai Resort, and she now brings her expertise to Private Event Sales & Coordination at State Farm Stadium, home of the NFL AZ Cardinals.

Some of her favorite events have been activating the Morgan Athletic Club premium lounge during concerts like Post Malone and Morgan Wallen, and back in the day, hosting speakeasy nights at the old DeSoto Warehouse with a 14-pience band and swing dancing.
