Attention to Detail & Organization

Whether planning a luxury wedding or homecoming events, my focus on attention to detail and staying organized ensured the seamless execution of every event. I use structured timelines, checklists, and a straightforward planning process, all while adhering to deadlines to ensure everything runs on schedule.

Crisis Management & Adaptability

Event planning often comes with last-minute changes and unforeseen challenges. I’ve become adept at crisis management—whether dealing with unexpected weather conditions or last-minute vendor issues—and learning to quickly adjust without sacrificing quality or the guest experience. My experience in navigating state purchase orders and business guidelines also helped me become resourceful and flexible.

Team Management & Communication

Leading teams of coordinators and volunteers, I honed my skills in effective communication and teamwork. By actively listening to my team members and understanding their strengths, I ensured that each event ran smoothly. As a director, I learned to manage different personalities and find ways to meet people where they were to get the best results.

Vendor & Sponsor Relations

Overseeing vendor and sponsor relations has been crucial in ensuring event success. My experience ranges from handling NET30 purchase orders with state entities to managing relationships with external vendors and sponsors to ensure all needs were met. I’ve learned how to balance the demands of multiple stakeholders while maintaining a positive relationship with all parties involved.
