FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I achieved my Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) designation in 2005. The Events Industry Council (EIC) launched the Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) program in 1985 to enhance the knowledge and performance of meeting professionals, promote the status and credibility of the meeting profession, and advance uniform standards of practice. A CMP designation shows that an individual is dedicated to the profession and conveys expertise in planning, managing, and executing successful meetings and events.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
For over 25 years, I spent my days (and nights and weekends) planning events and conferences for mass audiences in the corporate world. In my spare time i planned a myriad of personal parties, weddings and events, organized people's lives and established a reputation as the go to gift gal for a variety of people. My dream has always been to take what she excelled at in the corporate world, and bring it over to a personal, consumer level. So, when corporate restructuring saw my position of ten years eliminated, I felt the time was right to finally live out my dream, and Plan-It Perfect, LLC was born.
