I've been able to demonstrate my commitment and work ethic with 7 years of management experience in the event industry. What I love about the event industry is the opportunity to learn new skills, every year it seems like I'm doing something such as lighting/draping, wedding rentals, florals, venue management and the list could keep going.I never thought I would end up in catering but my interest in trying new things got me to start a small catering company called Grander Events with my business partners and I have loved it! For Grander Events, I do everything that comes along with running a business such as sales, organization, and advertising. I coordinate with employees, clients, and venues to make sure events run smoothly. My favorite part about managing a business though has been the freedom to implement new ideas and plans into grander events and learn from my successes and failures.
