About Us
We are a PEOPLE-FIRST agency.
Our
Story
The Creative Mill was founded by Chrissy Miller, a seasoned event professional with over a decade of experience directing operations and talent management for world-class events including the Essence Festival of Culture, the Super Bowl, and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
​
Chrissy saw firsthand that the strength of an event lies in its people. Out of that conviction, she built The Creative Mill, an event management agency dedicated to recruiting, developing, staffing, and managing aligned professionals who deliver with excellence.
​
Today, The Creative Mill exists to build purpose-powered teams and provide project support that elevate events of every scale.
Our
Mission
To provide organizations with exceptional event teams and project support by investing in people first, aligning their strengths with opportunity, and managing them with care, professionalism, and precision.
Our
Difference
What sets us apart is the Mill Workforce Method™, our people-first framework for building event teams. Unlike traditional staffing agencies, we focus on development before placement. Every professional is:
​
-
Recruited through our Creative Match sourcing hub
-
Developed through our workforce framework
-
Staffed into aligned roles
-
Managed for consistent excellence
​
This approach ensures that every team we build is prepared, aligned, and empowered to elevate the event experience.
