About

I have been working in events for over fifteen years. These have ranged from academic events and conferences, to weddings and festivals. I have a BAH and MA in Art History from Queen’s University and completed a Diploma in Event Management certified by the Chartered Institute of Marketing while living in the UK. I am also certified by the Wedding Planners’ Institute of Canada. During my time in the UK I had the amazing opportunity to work on Pride in London. I worked specifically as a liaison between Prides throughout the UK and towards creating an accessible Pride for all. At our first attempt we achieved Silver Certification with Attitude is Everything. I subsequently moved back to Canada and shortly thereafter my partner and I welcomed a baby boy into our family. Having a year to reflect on my career helped me realize that it was the perfect time to start my own business. As I moved more into the world of events I helped plan the annual Kingston Intercultural Arts Festival – hosting 22 cultural associations, coordinating 12 performances on the main stage and 6 free art workshops for up to 8,000 visitors. I worked in events at Queen’s University for several years and in 2022 I took the decision to follow my passion and take my business full-time.
