Hello! I'm so glad you stopped by to get to know a little about me and my company Celebrated Events. I was born and raised in South Bend, Indiana, and graduated from Indiana University. Family is one of my core values, so I am honored to support my clients and their families as they plan for the next chapter in their lives. I'm often asked what it is that I love most about planning weddings and events, while its not just one thing, at the top of the list is getting to meet and cultivate friendships with my clients. Growing up, my parents who owned their own company, had a quote on all their business correspondence that read, 'We are not primarily put on this earth to see through one another, but to see one another through.' My mission is to provide the help and encouragement my clients need during this life changing, and life affirming time in their lives.

When I'm not up to my elbows in color swatches and catering proposals, I'm generally being bossed around by my sassy rescue pug, Petunia. I will never turn down a piece of cake, any flavor, filling or frosting will do! Coffee in the morning isn't really an option if much of anything is going to get done, black with a pinch of sugar please. I adore movies from the golden age of Hollywood and my favorite cocktail is a Margarita on the rocks, salt all around that rim.
