When I learned Calvin was going to be in London on May 25th, his 57th birthday, I told him I’d help organize a casual celebration with friends. First person I called was Michael Caselli and we threw around some ideas, next person I called was Jodie Thind for more ideas and the three of us then met in person to get the ball rolling.

Around the same time, I stopped by my boyfriend’s restaurant Tziganos and a regular customer was there to change her reservation. I couldn’t help but notice her American accent, so we got chatting (as us Americans sometimes tend to do) and was straight away drawn to her positive energy.

During our brief conversation I learned Julie Girgenti has her own luxury events planning company Exceptional Events, she and I randomly have a mutual iGaming industry friend (Lee-Ann Johnstone) and she is interested in learning more about the cryptocurrency world.  We agreed to meet up for a drink the following weekend to continue our discussion.
