Expect it.

I have worked with hotels, restaurants, community organizations, film festivals, music festivals, food festivals, and brands, from public relations to marketing and event production. I bring a keen understanding of marketing, logistics, operations, loads of energy, and an entrepreneurial spirit.

I specialize in bringing people together through unique experiences. From "oysters at the ice rink," "beauty and bubbles by the beach," or red carpet events, anything that disrupts the ordinary.

Believe it.

Born and raised in the midwest with a California soul.  LA is my home and Italy is my heart.   

I believe an event is a gathering of great people; every day can be a celebration, and food is meant to be enjoyed.  As a child, setting the table was my favorite "chore" to do before sitting down to dinner, whether it was just my mom and I or a large family dinner.  Being surrounded by Italians and great Mediterranean food helped foster my passion for hospitality at a young age. I am one of the few people lucky enough to have built a career around it.  I love people, I love great food, and I love bringing those things together.  My first job was publicity for LA’s growing culinary scene in the early 2000s before chefs were rockstars and "foodies" were famous.   While I spent my early career in publicity and working with food and wine magazines, newspapers, and blogs, my passion for events stayed true. I soon transitioned to working in the events industry and creating events programs for restaurants and venues around LA. 

Grow it.

Do you see a pattern here? Food, people, helping grow businesses is what I do. My specialty is creating unique experiences that help you grow your business from restaurant openings, film premieres, pop-ups, team building events, client appreciation events, and brand awareness events.

Detail it.

You can usually find me in the kitchen or backstage. My latest project is being a mom of twin boys, wife to my husband of five years, and dog mom to my rescue poodle Buzz.
