Totally Wonderful Asheville Things

I've been an event planner my entire career and wouldn't know what to do otherwise.  I love planning and executing events. I love people. I really love my job and the company Becca and I created.

My experience in managing nearly 800 events has been varied – everything from highly stylized themed parties and luncheons in the nonprofit sector to bridal shows, weddings and fashion shows in major markets in the Midwest. I even worked in the marketing department producing team events and conferences for an industrial manufacturer at the corporate level.

For eleven years, I worked as the Festival Director for the City of Asheville, North Carolina.  I was responsible for 5 festivals, including Bele Chere – one of the largest, free music festivals in the Southeast - and consulting and permitting 100 events annually with an attendance of over 500,000 people. I managed a team of 6 staff members and served as the key media spokesperson to major media across the Southeast.  I was the founder and director of the Asheville Film Festival & secured over $1 million in funding for city-wide festivals.

I’m a mom, a wife, a runner and an animal-lover.  I love rock music, shopping, the beach and calling Asheville, North Carolina home.
