• I discovered stage management my freshman year of high school while assisting on Tarzan, and by fall, I was stage managing The Addams Family.​​

​

• During sophomore year, I won the National Cappies Award for Stage Management and later earned multiple superior ratings at state and national competitions.

​

• After receiving several awards and being recruited by universities at the National Thespian Festival, I chose to pursue a BFA in Stage & Production Management at Oklahoma City University.

​

• At OCU, I gained hands-on training in all areas of technical theatre, building the communication and practical skills essential for effective stage management.

​

• Following college I was fortunate enough to be accepted to intern for Ciruqe du Soleil in Las Vegas. This experience allowed me to put all my learned knowledge to use, while also learning more about stage managing high stakes performances.​​

Stage Management

• I have loved weddings since I was a little girl, but it wasn't until after high school that I got back into the world of weddings.

•  

• My first professional experience in weddings was in 2022, but my 2023 internship with Happily Hitched, LLC gave me a deeper understanding of the planning process.

​

• There, I learned to communicate with clients, vendors, and venues, attended weddings as an assistant, and helped oversee setup and coordination on the day-of.

​

• I managed vendor communication, guided guests, and ensured the event stayed on schedule—playing a key role in making each wedding run smoothly.

​

• I am always learning more about the planning process & event operations when it comes to weddings. I hope to one day begin my own wedding planning business and make that my full time job.

Wedding Planning 

• I was introduced to event management in summer 2022 while working as an assistant events manager at a winery, where I gained hands-on experience with weddings and event setups.

​

• In my senior year, I interned with Factor 110, assisting with corporate expos and conferences, and independently coordinated a full-scale gala by the end of the internship.

​

• That spring, I took a venue management course and discovered a passion for the field, leading me to join IAVM (International Association of Venue Managers).

​

• After graduation, I was selected for the 2024 IAVM Venue Management School internship, where I gained industry insight and networked with professionals through workshops and classes.

​

• In 2025, I began freelancing in roles like events assistant, PA, and coordinator—gaining varied experience to strengthen my qualifications for full-time opportunities.
