About Me

My passion for hospitality was planted far before landing in the industry. Growing up, I would often visit my grandmother in New York City. She shared the city with me through her eyes, showing me the most lovely and lively spots. From restaurants, museums, theatre, floral shops, cafes, and parks, I had the privilege of acquiring an eye for a good gathering and an aesthetic space at a young age. Her passions of exploration, socialization and hosting soon fulfilled me too.

Before graduating from University of Missouri with a B.S. in Hospitality Management, emphasis in Conference & Events, I explored majors in Business, Entrepreneurship and Textile & Apparel Management. Then, I would have told you changing majors 3 times was ludicrous, but I now know these skills are all encompassing in my career aspirations today.

It is truly a blessing to be able to spend my time doing what I love. To be able to collaborate and connect with people from all over to create experiences and celebrations for my clients is such a privilege to me. As an event planner, my responsibility is to make the planning process fun, exciting, relaxed and fluid. With over a hundred events under my belt spanning from personal, corporate, fundraising, and destination, I am a master communicator and an expert at forecasting and correcting issues before they arise. I strive in fast-paced, high stress environments, always with my clients’ best interest in mind. I am deadline driven with a strong attention to detail. I provide consistency in my work and a positive, "can-do" attitude.
