Hello! Welcome to my very first blog post. I can not wait for you to share in my journey; it will be “Truly Eventful.” (See what I did there..)
I guess I would like to start off by giving out some very special “thank yous.” I owe this entire journey to some very special family. First and foremost, my parents. After studying exercise physiology for five years to only take the easy way out and obtain a regents degree and Dad didn’t kill me, that’s thanks enough.
My mother, who has ever supported me on this crazy journey we call life and not once given up on me. You are the best, I am forever indebted to you.
My sister, who teaches me every day. The biggest lesson has always been to smile in the face of adversity. She always has and it has never once stopped her progress. Blythie, you are my best friend and my hero.
My extended family. Aunt Dawna never turns her back on a niece or nephew, and I was not an exception. I am forever grateful for an aunt that will stop everything to help me.

My grandparents, Grandpap and Grandma Foster, and Grandma Givens each of whom have taught me to value different important things in life. You have helped shape me into the person I am today.
Cousin Karah who has held my hand through the process and even pushed the idea first. I appreciate your support and am so glad we can help each other gain business.
The rest of my family: aunts, uncles, cousins and all of our close family friends. You have supported me in all my endeavors, and I truly appreciate all the courage you’ve sent my way.
My best friends.

Leah, you always taught me to be fearless and adventurous. It is to you that I owe this venture.

Lanette, your support throughout the years is immeasurable. You always throw more gasoline on the fire which in this case turned out for the better! You’ll never know how much I credit you for making this possible.
And for those of you I have not yet met: I look forward to working with you and establishing relationships with you all. Thank you in advance for giving me the opportunity and trusting me to create your dream event. I promise to work with and for you to make the process easier and a little less stressful for you so that your visions can come to life. After all, everyone deserves to feel like a superstar or celebrity at least once in their life. That’s why I am here.
