Who Am I?

Family and friends are my number one priority—they are the foundation of my life. I'm a perfectionist and pay close attention to the smallest details because I believe that even the little things make a big difference. I always strive to make sure everything looks and feels its best, as I truly value quality in all aspects of life.


I have a deep passion for weddings and events. To me, they represent some of the happiest moments in people's lives, and being part of that joy brings me immense fulfillment. When I was little, I dreamed of becoming a wedding planner, which speaks to how much I’ve always loved celebrating love and commitment.


I’m also incredibly observant of my surroundings. Whether it's noticing a bride's reactions to a dress she’s trying on, picking up on when students need help, assessing how a lesson is going, or identifying areas where a team can improve, I’m always aware of the details. My ability to read situations and people helps me create meaningful experiences and ensures I’m able to make things better, no matter what I’m involved in.
