I mostly do galas, and especially related to ballroom dancing competitions locally and nationally. Recently got into charity events work, and excited to gain some experience there. I would love to do some work in wedding planning! (that's why i got so interested in events to begin with... ya... not very original huh? haha). 5 years and counting - tho i just got out of UBC =) still green, but ready to rock and roll.

Just curious, what's your company called? =)
Oh boy! I don't really want to air this out. If you send me a private message or email I will gladly tell you.

P.S. I was an event planner for a major charitable foundation for quite some time.
