If you aren’t working, where would we find you on the weekend?: You’d most likely find me at the beach!
Craziest setup story: Definitely the time Kendal and I had a set up in Newport News, and there was SO many chair covers, sashes, table linens and chargers that it was overwhelming! But, after 6 hours it was fulfilling to see how beautiful the reception looked with all the centerpieces!
What is your favorite part of the setup process at an event?: I love tying sashes! Making a perfect bow is the best feeling!
What is the most significant thing you’ve learned from working in the event industry?: I’ve definitely learned how to be more innovative with event ideas and I’ve had to learn to be quick on my feet because sometimes issues come up and you have to think fast and creatively to solve them.
