An Invitation to Gather

Event Coordination • Sacred Hosting • Community Creation

There is an art to gathering people well.

An art to creating spaces where people feel seen, safe, relaxed, inspired, and genuinely connected.
An art to holding both the logistics and the heart of an experience.

This is the art I have been living into for most of my life.

A Natural Hostess, A Seasoned Coordinator.

From my earliest years — hosting birthday parties, after-parties, and community gatherings for dance and drama productions in Jr. and Sr. High School-

I have been a natural convener of people.

Over decades on production teams within the West Coast festival circuit and global retreat world, this gift matured into a deeply grounded skill set.

I have served behind the scenes and at the front of the stage- as event coordinator, vendor coordinator, box office manager, talent liaison, production manager, admin organizer, sacred guide, stage performer, vendor and circle hostess- learning what truly makes an event feel nourishing, seamless, and alive.

From Vision to Arrival — I Hold Can It All

Let me share how...

I know how to plan an event from the top all the way to the bottom — and everything in between.

It begins with vision.

Clarifying the purpose, tone, and feeling of the gathering. Choosing the right date. Sourcing the right location. Ensuring the event is aligned before a single invitation is sent.

I handle the details

~Booking venues and coordinating logistics

~Sourcing and managing talent, facilitators, and contributors

~Establishing timelines, schedules, and flow

~Creating and distributing clear invitations

~Communicating with guests and attendees so they arrive prepared and comfortable

~Coordinating catering, vendors, and on-site needs

~Managing back-end organization, contracts, and details

~Holding the entire experience together so nothing falls through the cracks

~Every element is thoughtfully tended to — wrapped up in a nice, coherent bow.

What I Offer as an Event Planning Coordinator

When you hire me, you are not just hiring someone to “run logistics.”

You are inviting in a partner who:

~Understands the full arc of an event — before, during, and after

~Holds your vision with care and respect

~Supports you so you can show up fully in your role

~Creates an environment where participants feel welcomed, held, and engaged

~Brings calm, clarity, and grace to moving parts

Whether your event is sacred or celebratory, intimate or expansive, structured or fluid — I help it land beautifully in the bodies and hearts of those who attend.

A Living Example: The Events I Host

You don’t have to imagine what it’s like to work with me — you can experience it directly.

The gatherings, retreats, ceremonies, and community events I host are living expressions of my approach. They are spaces where people arrive as strangers and often leave feeling like family. Where laughter and reverence coexist. Where care is felt in the smallest details.

By joining one of my events, you step into the very field I also create for my clients. authentically share your story with the world.
