Q Many People don?t follow their dreams, what
keeps you going? I would say my kids keep me
going and my clients! I have a lot of clients that
continue to come back and that's how I know I'm
fulfilling their needs as an event planner.
Q Are you at a place where you feel comfortable
or is there more you can learn from your craft or
put into your craft? I'm always open to learn new
things to perfect my craft I don't think there's
ever a point where there isn't any room for
improvement.
Q How does Oakland or the Bay Area influence
your talent? The Bay Area has a lot of talented
people that are striving for better especially in
my field. The Bay Area is where I've grown up
and is where majority of my clients are from, so
it makes me push harder for them.

Q So when did you fall in love with baking?
I've always loved the concept of baking, even
as a kid I always watched my mom bake and
waited around to lick the spoons Lol!
Q Is there anyone who has inspired your
passion? My kids are what inspired my
passion! I always knew I was crafty and could
put things together nicely but once I had kids
it was another ballgame. Me wanting the best
for them made me push myself even more. I
started off just basing and setting up for their
parties so I wouldn't be where I am without
them.
Q Can you see yourself doing this forever?I
can definitely see myself doing this forever
it's what I love to do. I've had many, many jobs
and none of them compare to this.
Q What plans do you have for the future, is branding
your business an option in the future?
My plans are to go bigger that's all! Celebrity events,
weddings, traveling for events, everything!!! Lol but
mainly Continue to do what I do best and make sure
my family is never worried about anything.
Q What?s raw talent to you? Raw talent to me is just
when it comes natural when you?re not forcing it or
not trying to do something that's not meant for you
to do. When you have talent and it's just natural and
it's your passion and you?re good at it, then it?s
definitely for you.
