I'm a DC native with a passion for event planning and design. My career began as an invitation designer, where I worked at one of the companies that helped launch the event planning industry in DC; Creative Parties. Designing and creating invitations began my foreweigh into the events world. This led me onto a career in catering where my skills were honed in the world of food, service and event design. My passion for weddings and design drove me to discover the realm of bridal styling with Carine's Bridal Atelier. 

Over the past eight years I have built a business rooted in connection and trust, allowing me to grow past any expectations I had. My attention to detail, organization, and creativity has landed me in the niche world of  Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, where I create a luxury planning experience and events for families all across the DMV. My unparalleled dedication to my work and true love for event planning can be seen in the relationships I build with my clients, who continue to trust me time and time again. 

When I’m not planning events for other people, I am giving belly rubs to my pup Amelia, hanging by the beach or snowboarding. I will never turn down sushi (just ask my husband), and would choose dessert over wine any day.
