With such an unexpected and extensive background in Corporate America, I am so lucky to have finally found my calling in event planning. Community, family and friends are the most important aspect of my life so naturally, I was eager to plan and throw all parties because I loved bringing everyone together to celebrate many different occasions.
What started as a hobby eventually led me to start up my very own event planning company. I thought that I could use my creativity and organization skills to good use by bringing other people together with their friends and family to create unforgettable memories of their own. It gets difficult trying to balance being a dedicated wife and mother of four amazing children and starting my own business from the ground up as there are stressful times in everyone’s life, but I try to push past them, reminding myself of my personal motto: “There are no problems, only solutions.”
I am thrilled to have the opportunity and the support of my community, friends, family and team to be able to do what I truly love.
