Introduction: I offer impeccabile client service pre-event through post-event. The high I get when the event is over and it was a huge success. I also love the relationships that are developed with the client and the vendors servicing the event. Event planning is listed as eighth for a 2015 listing of most stressful jobs. We all know that there are good types of stress and bad. Event planning stress for me is good stress. Meeting the challenges and demands gives me a hugh sense of accomplishment.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Certified Meeting Planner (CMP) and am required to comply with continuing education specifications to remain certified. I am also a member of Meeting Planners International (MPI) and involved in leadership roles in the Philadelphia chapter.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started out my career practicing law in Atlanta, GA. Marriage and an eventual move took me to Westfield, NJ where I had three children and was a stay at home mom while they were young. As they got older I started to try and figure out what I wanted to do with my life. I launched a successful networking organization for single professionals and began holding events - dinners, cocktail receptions and fundraisers. A synchronistic meeting in an elevator led me to being offered the position of National Events Manager for a law firm and I never looked back. I found what I wanted to do with my life!
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
If it is not fun, I am not doing it! Meeting planning is extremely fun. I am passionate about producing successful events, therefore, I have a lot of fun in my life:)
