The Story

Created by an Event Pro, for Event Pros

Sean Specie speaking at a leadership conference

Meet Sean Specie

With nearly 15 years in the events industry, Sean has been in the trenches. Since 2011, he's planned, produced, emceed, and DJed over 700 events for 80+ clients across 82 cities, entertaining and engaging more than 240,000 attendees.

Sean has created events for brands like Coca-Cola, Citizens Bank, the Atlanta Falcons, Chick-fil-A, and the NFL. He knows what it takes to deliver world-class experiences—and the pain of using tools that weren't built for the job.

That's why he created Ripluo. As the owner of CoastalSpark Entertainment, founder of Event Builder Pro, and Conference Director for The Church of Eleven22 in Jacksonville, FL, Sean built the software he always wished existed.

A natural entertainer and teacher, Sean loves helping people learn something new and have fun at the same time. When he's not on stage, behind a DJ board, or in front of a camera for virtual events, you'll find him in the backyard on the trampoline with his daughter Gemma (8) and chasing his son Nathaniel (3) around with his wife Natalie.

Our Name

The Meaning Behind the Name

Every letter in Ripluo tells a story of purpose, planning, and faith.

RI

Ripple

Events cause a splash. We want to create ripple effects for your attendees—experiences that resonate long after the event ends.

PL

Plan

Every great event has a great plan. Behind the magic is meticulous preparation, thoughtful timelines, and attention to every detail.

UO

Pistuo

From the Greek word pistuo—to put your whole faith and trust in something. In the Bible, this word describes putting one's faith in Jesus. It's not enough to know—we must believe and trust.

As we plan, we can put our faith in God and His plan. Ripluo is built on the belief that when we combine careful preparation with faithful trust, we create something truly meaningful—events that make a lasting impact.
