I\u2019ve been in the Los Angeles area for over 9 years and I love it! I live with my boyfriend and our loving poodle, Penny. My whole family is still in Northern California so I visit them often.

What about it appeals to you?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019ve always been crafty and organized but I never really thought of being a wedding planner. A few years ago, I was working in administration and the restaurant industry. Our company\u2019s Director of Events had resigned, and requested that I take her spot. I was basically thrown into event planning with no experience! Luckily, it was everything I had been looking for. I learned quickly and fell in love with the career. Ever since I\u2019ve never looked back and have been planning weddings and events for many years! It makes me happier than anything. Seeing ideas on paper come to life, and the happiness on my client\u2019s faces is the greatest feeling. I love creating happiness!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13748\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Agoura-calligraphy.jpg\" alt=\"calligraphy on wedding invitation\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Agoura-calligraphy.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Agoura-calligraphy-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_the_most_important_thing_you_learned_about_event_planning_while_you_were_studying_with_QC\"><\/span>What\u2019s the most important thing you learned about event planning while you were studying with QC?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I decided to take a course at QC a few years after I had begun working in the events industry. I believe we should always keep learning and growing so I took a wedding and event planning course to further my expertise, and learn how to start my own business. While taking this course, I learned a lot about the business side of the industry, like preparing a business plan and creating marketing materials. This helped immensely when starting my own business. This course was also great because I learned a lot about cultural diversities and traditions. It prepared me for a lot more than I anticipated!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13753\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-cake.jpg\" alt=\"cake with love writing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-cake.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-cake-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_does_your_business_specialize_in_the_events_industry_What_are_your_favorite_types_of_events_to_plan_and_bring_to_life\"><\/span>Where does your business specialize in the events industry? What are your favorite types of events to plan and bring to life?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Golden State Events specializes in all types of events, from weddings to corporate events. My favorite types of events are definitely weddings. Choosing the venue, working with vendors, picking out flowers, etc, and seeing it all come to life on the wedding day is the best feeling. Details are everything! Weddings have such a euphoria about them that lets me know I am in the right business.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13755\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.qceventplanning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"rustic barn wedding\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-wedding.jpg 672w, https:\/\/www.qceventplanning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/agoura-hills-wedding-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_think_QC_school_has_prepared_you_for_working_in_the_industry\"><\/span>How do you think QC school has prepared you for working in the industry?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>QC definitely prepared me to start my own business.
