Event Design & Planning
My experience spans all aspects of personal and corporate events of all sizes - from design and marketing, to planning and managing each element! I've done everything from casual get-togethers (e.g. baby showers), to small-scale corporate parties (e.g. Sponsor & Donor Appreciation Events), to multi-day fundraisers (e.g. auctions).

Multi-day art auction comprised of opening entertainment, catered meals and full bar, silent auctions, live auction with curated entertainment, and a full gala meal. Held to support the non-profit organization's scholarships, programing, and operating costs. Event was extremely successful, both in popularity (sold out), financially (exceeded set goals), and reviews (attendees said the refreshed format rekindled their excitement for auction fundraisers).
The Garden Tour Gala is the close-out celebration for a PNW non-profit organization's summer fundraiser called the Garden Tour. During the Garden Tour, local residents of Vashon Island open their impressive gardens to tour ticket holders.
I designed, planned, and managed every part of the Garden Tour for the non-profit, including the Gala dinner.
Designed, planned, and managed every aspect of a California orchard wedding. Tablescapes included warm summery colors with bright and bold floral arrangements with gold fish in each vase's water. Bountiful hors d'oeuvres, excellent music, and plenty of beautiful touches to the natural landscape created "one of the best weddings" most guests said they'd ever attended.
