From Stages to Celebrations: Cultivating Community in Every Event.
My career has been shaped by a core value: the power of connection and shared learning. These beliefs have guided me as an entrepreneur, event planner, and advocate for community building.
My path has been varied, taking me from the creative worlds of metalsmithing, event planning and theatre production to the more bookish world of historic preservation, paralegal, and business management. These diverse experiences have equipped me with a unique skillset that allows me to create events that resonate with a broad audience, all while giving and receiving many teaching moments.
Living and working in different countries has further enriched my perspective. It has highlighted the importance of clear communication and understanding cultural nuances, which are essential for building strong connections. Through these experiences, I've come to appreciate the common thread that binds us all: our shared humanity.
The most fulfilling aspect of my work life comes from making a positive impact. This may be through creating the living vision of a couple celebrating their wedding, showcasing an exceptional local artisan, or coordinating a successful community or corporate event.
A particularly rewarding accomplishment was founding the Village Theatre Company (VTC). Driven by a desire to create a welcoming space for artistic expression, VTC became a safe place for anyone to come and create and learn, regardless of age, race, neurodivergence, or background. Witnessing the positive impact VTC had on our community remains a source of great pride for me and seeing former VTC actors in other roles shine brightly, be it on the stage or in a new career, is such a joy.
At MTMG, I'm excited to leverage my passion for community building and event planning to bring our company and its clients together. I envision creating engaging events that foster long-lasting connections between MTMG's team, our clients, and each other.
By fostering these connections, we can build a strong and vibrant community around MTMG, where everyone is valued and supported. Ultimately, it takes a village, and I'm committed to using my experience to create meaningful connections, one client at a time.
