She operates Brocade Events on a full-time basis, and not as a hobby business or side project.

Above all else, she loves people, and would have been a Psychologist if she wasn't such a lost soul in high school. The best part of her job is making her clients feel at ease and confident no matter the circumstances, their wack-a-doo family members, or whatever else that may be going on behind the scenes at their wedding or in their lives. Her couples put a lot of trust in her, and she never takes that for granted.
