Co-owner of Millennium Limousine Service that featured luxury sedan and limousine services for elite clientele in the Tampa Bay area.

I oversaw all business operations and was instrumental in getting Millennium Limousine to be chosen as one of the limousine companies servicing the NFL for the 2001 Super Bowl in Tampa, Florida. At the time, Millennium Limousine had the only Tampa Bay Buccaneer pewter color limousine in the Tampa Bay area.

My partner and I had a lot of fun because this was totally different than running any other type of business. I coordinated wedding events, proposals and surprise engagements. Managing it all was hectic at times but we enjoyed rolling out the red carpet with red roses & champagne!

Event planning takes nerves of steel, being well organized, and always being ready to expect the unexpected. It was important to have a plan “B” because any little thing can ruin someone’s most precious day and memories. For me personally, my greatest joy was that I got to be a part of the most memorable days in so many people's lives.
