: About Me

Where do I begin? The past couple years my husband and I have been traveling the US looking for a place to settle down...and just recently we found ourselves a little slice of heaven in Colorado Springs, Colorado! Wow, are the mountains beautiful or what? While here, I will continue writing and hope to also build my event planning business.

I hold an MBA from the University of Michigan and have worked both as an event planner and a college administrator over the past decade. I have realized that my true passion lies in planning events, so I am hoping to take it to the next level and branch out on my own. In my down time, I love to write, and am hoping to take that to the next level as well!

reading, writing, spending time with my husband and dog, working out, cooking
