Reason I Want To Return To Event Planning
- I moved to the Central Coast in 2003. I sold HMI - Holiday Models, Inc. & Holiday Convention Services Group in 2007. I enjoy being able to create a business built around my artistic skills which has always been my dream, but I miss the feeling of accomplishment and excitement of putting together a flawless event. I am interested in a part time assistant, consultant or facilitator position and I am willing to travel if needed. Please contact me if you find that my skills would be benificial to you and your clients.
