Jenny Sova joined our team in 2017 as director of planning for LA Fleet Week. Currently, she’s Battleship IOWA’s chief of staff. 

We dragged this wonderful, fun  lady away from her crazy-busy schedule to chat about what it’s like to stage an event as large as LA Fleet Week.

Warning: we’re a few weeks from the start of this first major public event since Covid, and we’ve hit the point where we’re a little goofy.
