My background
I LOVE to eat and drink! My parents used to joke that I was born at Jocko’s, a dark, smoky oak pit BBQ restaurant located in the Central Coast of California, where steak was the first solid food I tasted. Clearly, my early experiences there had a big impact on me, because I always wanted to work at a restaurant when I grew up. When I left the coast for urban living in LA, I finally got my wish: I was hired as a waitress at a small boutique restaurant and eventually worked my way up to General Manager. As GM, I learned all the secrets to exploding alcohol and food sales, and increased catering sales by 3,500%.
I’ve since earned an Executive Diploma in Hospitality, Event Planning and Food/Beverage Management from The International School of Hospitality.
Currently, I live in *Fabulous* Las Vegas, Nevada with my husband and our tiny parrot, but we consider New Orleans our “home away from home.” We find the genuine hospitality, mouth-watering food, and booze that flows like water impossible to resist. We’ve only missed our annual pilgrimage once, and that was due to the pandemic.
How the process works…
First, hop on over to my calendar and choose a time that works for us to meet via Zoom. Next, I have a handy, dandy checklist for you to download and take notes on what your most urgent needs are. Once we meet and I know what you’re looking for, I’ll be able to create a custom plan for you and provide pricing for my services. I’m excited to meet you and looking forward to helping you satisfy your customers.
