About

Creative, and results-oriented Event Coordinator and Stylist with a proven ability to manage complex logistics and bring client visions to life. Backed by professional certifications in Event Management and Decoration, I specialize in the end-to-end planning, designing, and execution of seamless weddings, birthdays, corporate programs, and bespoke ceremonies. Leveraging over 6 years of leadership and organizational experience, I excel in vendor management, project execution, and resource allocation.

By strategically utilizing digital tools like Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Calendar) for operational tracking and Canva, Pinterest and EventCreate for spatial design, I consistently deliver high-impact, zero-delay events while maintaining strong client relations in high-pressure environments.
