Small business owner with 25 years experience. My skills include developing systems and process for all boss level tasks, event and wedding planning, team leadership, coaching and mentoring fellow entrepreneurs, and teaching wedding planners seeking to improve their skills. Through my volunteering as a leader in event industry organizations and outside the industry, speaking at industry events, and writing, I choose to educate others and raise the level of services and professionalism in the event industry. Noonday allows me to focus my passion for helping others by creating a marketplace for artisans around the world and creating sustainable work in those communities. I also offer the opportunity to others for creating an income for themselves while also helping create that marketplace.
