Founder and Host, EMERGE

Jennifer Zabinski, Founder and Host of EMERGE

For more than two decades, Jennifer Zabinski has built her career around knowing the right people, the right places, and the details that transform an occasion into something unforgettable. As one of the country’s most sought-after event producers, she has created extraordinary experiences around the world - always with an instinct for what feels special, personal, and impossible to replicate. 

 

EMERGE is an extension of that instinct. Jennifer has brought together the people, practices, places, and experiences she genuinely believes are the best of the best, curating them with the same care she brings to her most celebrated events. The result is not simply a wellness retreat, but an invitation into Jennifer’s world: thoughtfully connected, beautifully hosted, and designed to give guests access to something they wouldn’t experience on their own.
