Who Is Ecriva?

Ecriva is owned by Helen Schwake, CSEP. A rummage into her background takes you on a winding path. She's designed English lessons in Japan, written million-dollar grant applications in Germany, coordinated marketing materials in six languages, crafted tech support help for the klutz to the whiz, and created knock-your-socks-off bids for huge US special events. Along the way, she's absorbed a rich diversity of language and ideas that she now shares with clients around the world.

Specialties

Ecriva’s writing topics have run the gamut from environmental ground cleansing to breeds of dogs, data encryption to perinatal loss. But there is usually an area of greater familiarity, and for Ecriva that would be the Meetings, Incentive, Convention and Events industry. With years of personal experience and further education in the events industry that continues today, the areas of meeting/event production, catering, design, event support services and technical production lie close to our hearts.
