My Background
Personal Profile
From a young age of 12, I've had a gift for planning events, which later evolved into community work. I began organizing annual food drives to feed the homeless during Thanksgiving, while also being the , "go-to" person when it came to anything within my family. This experience taught me the importance of community in every business. My background in community events allowed me to excel in personal and corporate event planning.
Current
Spectacle Event Design was founded due to my love for event planning. After organizing a baby shower for a neighbor, I was inspired to start designing and creating once again. With over two decades of experience in the special events industry, I am now focusing solely on the design aspect of special events. I am passionate about creating memorable experiences for life's special occasions .
