I'm thrilled to share my journey with you, both personally and professionally! I embrace transparency as I navigate my untethered life plan, believing wholeheartedly in myself and surrounding myself with like-minded individuals. With nearly 25 years of experience in event planning and operational management, and 45 years of living life to the fullest, I've explored various paths with an open heart and a spirit of adventure. Let's embark on this exciting journey together!
