City, Rhonda James serves as President and CEO of E218 Events

Management, a full-service event planning and production company

founded in 2017.  She has led the charge in creating memorable experiences that blend strategic planning with creative excellence.

From black-tie galas to borough-wide public events, Rhonda & her team have become a trusted partner for clients ranging from government agencies and non-profits to private enterprises and cultural institutions. With a reputation for flawless execution and meticulous attention to detail, she brings a rare combination of logistical mastery, artistic vision, and business acumen to every project.

 

Under her leadership, E218 Events has delivered show-stopping events like The Bronx Ball, the borough’s premiere gala honoring inductees to the Bronx Walk of Fame.

Driven, strategic, and solutions-focused, [Your Name] thrives under pressure and is known for bringing order to chaos while never losing sight of the big picture—or the guest experience. Her work continues to shape the cultural and social fabric of The Bronx and beyond.​​
