I bring smiles to faces and help people celebrate the important events in their life while at the same time relieving them from stress. Imagine walking into an event and you see a 7' beer mug, or space aliens, or gentle flowing fabric and lights, or bright colorful columns, arches or sculptures. You'd know a real celebration was happening. You might event exclaim, "WOW!" That's what I do, I create the decor that makes people exclaim, "WOW!" and I do it using balloons.
Additionally, I am a customer retention specialist. I help people stay in touch and retain their customers as well as their friends and families. I am an independent distributor for an amazing customer service company, Send Out Cards, whose focus is to help people become senders of cards to "Change Lives one Card at a Time" The service is extremely simple to use and very economical as well--less than $1 per card! See for yourself and send 2 free cards my compliments. Just visit www.sendoutcards.com/abovetherest.
I am the founder and president of Above the Rest Event Designs. I have a passion for making people smile and helping them celebrate!
Formerly, I taught school for 15 years and was proud to have been the Student Council Advisor for West Valley Middle School for 7 years, which was known as the best middle student council in our area. I helped students develop leadership skills and taught them how to serve others.
I love to hike, travel, volunteer, teach leaderships skills, speak publically, and learn, learn, learn. I am constantly being blessed with new business ideas and am excited about learning and sharing with other entrepreneurs.
