Summary

Starting my journey at the age of 18, I embraced event planning through a friend's gathering, igniting a deep love for it. Over time, this passion grew as I orchestrated events for loved ones, expanding my skill set.

This ardor led me to pursue formal education in hotel management. The thrill of shaping ideas into reality, collaborating with vendors for optimal deals, and crafting unforgettable experiences fueled my journey. UNICEF enhanced my abilities, where I designed engaging children's events.

To me, event planning is more than a profession; it's a calling. Every detail I coordinate, every vision I execute, showcases my dedication to crafting remarkable moments. My enthusiasm is aligned with your quest for excellence, and I eagerly anticipate the prospect of bringing my passion for event planning to your team.
