Spotlight On: Grace Futterman, event coordinator at the CLT Alliance

Grace Futterman joins the Charlotte Regional Business Alliance as an event coordinator with a strong background in sales, client service, and community engagement. Experiences with brands such as Madewell, Urban Outfitters, Nivea, Theo & Spence NYC, and SupperClub South End have prepared her for delivering exceptional events to our investors.

As a Connecticut native, Grace brings a unique perspective to her work, having witnessed the growth and development of different local geographies.

Grace recently graduated from the University of South Carolina’s School of Hospitality, Retail, and Sport Management. Eager to embark on her career journey in a vibrant city, she wasted no time and relocated to Charlotte just three weeks after her graduation.

“We are thrilled to have Grace join the Engagement team,” Ashley Hedrick, senior director of engagement, said. “Her combination of energy, enthusiasm, and customer service experience will make a significant impact on engaging with investors and ensuring their needs are met effectively. Her eagerness to dive in and contribute will undoubtedly be beneficial to the team and stakeholders.”

Beyond her professional achievements, Grace is a past member and merchandise chair of ZTA sorority and dedicated UofSC alum, who makes it a priority to attend alumni events with the Charlotte Gamecocks Club. When she’s not busy at work, you can find Grace walking along the Rail Trail, sourcing vintage fashion treasures, or enjoying a round of golf – all while cherishing moments spent with friends.

With her diverse background and unwavering enthusiasm, Grace is poised to make a meaningful impact as part of the CLT Alliance family.
