Introduction

I enjoy assisting individuals with their events, whether it be at their residence, business or special venue. I want them to be able to experience their event in a way that they can relax and enjoy themselves. I am someone who likes to be sure all aspects of the event are eye-catching, enjoyable for the attendees and presented professionally.

Q&A

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

Getting to know them by finding out what their style and tastes are and creating an environment that is suitable to their needs. I make sure that they feel at ease with letting me handle the logistics of the event so they can enjoy entertaining their guests and can spend quality time with them.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have over 20 years experience as a caterer. I have been a part of large and small events, including residential events. I have worked as a server, bartender and as a lead person on several events. I also bartended regularly for the Virginia Commonwealth University Rams home basketball games that take place in the Tommy J. West suite at the Siegel Center.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I began working with a catering company as a part-time job and wanted to learn more about the business. I was an Event Coordinator in past positions with my full-time jobs and thought that it would be helpful to know both sides of the industries. In time, I learned about the industry, but also came to enjoy, very much, the type of work and the satisfaction it gave to those who I was providing a service.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have worked with a variety of individuals, whether it be a bride and groom for a engagement party or wedding reception. I have worked with families who have celebrated various occasions, such as anniversaries, birthdays, baby showers, holiday parties, etc.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

I would recommend someone who has experience and make sure to ask questions. Get to know the individual so that you feel comfortable with them.
