I’ll never stop feeling gratitude over being trusted with the most cherished moments of your life. In my own life, I’ve learned a great deal about the importance of time. It’s our one resource that we can never make more of. Time and sharing moments doing what we love with people that love us is the most significant gift. I believe in this so much that I’ve dedicated my life and my career to it. This is what I keep in the forefront of my mind while we’re working together. These events aren’t just events, they’re memories in the making.
I’ve been in the wedding and event industry for over nine years. Making events sweet is what keep me going!
When I’m not planning your events, you can find me on a surfboard, behind my camera, or chasing my cat around. I’m lucky enough to split my time between Guanacaste and Hatteras Island. I love both places so much that I can’t choose just one to call home.
Bringing people together and creating shared authentic experiences is what I do best. Listening, engaging, and celebrating, our collective stories together is at the core of what Sweet Events is all about.
I am born and raised on Hatteras Island. With the exception of my time living in Costa Rica, I have lived on Hatteras my entire life. As a teenager I started to volunteer in my community coaching sports and mentoring younger kids and it was at this point that I discovered my passion for facilitating safe, fun, and creative spaces for others to be their true authentic selves, and I haven’t looked back since. I bring over 15 years experience of planning events in across different professions, industries, and settings.
My background is in Art Education and I completed my studies teaching at a local school in Nicoya, Costa Rica. After graduating college I decided the classroom was not for me and ever since have worked with my family in the tourism and hospitality industry. When not working with Sweet Events I am USCG certified boat captain and help operate Hatteras Parasail, Jet Ski rentals, and boat rentals with my siblings and parents. In my spare time you can find me surfing, spear fishing, and being active.
