Event’s Portfolio

Coming from a Hispanic family, I’ve been coordinating events since I was 12 years old. My first major project was my own quinceañera at age 14. Through that experience, I learned how to negotiate with vendors, manage budgets, plan itineraries, problem solve, and much more. Although it was an extremely challenging task for my 14-year-old self, I discovered my passion for the challenges that come with event coordination.

Since then, my journey continued in high school as a member of the student council, where I helped organize proms, homecomings, Sadie Hawkins dances, pep rallies, and more. After high school, my event planning experience expanded into more professional roles. I worked as a Banquet Server at the Marriott, as an Event Coordinator at Colorado State University’s El Centro and an Event & Engagement Assistant at CSU”s Alumni Association. Additionally, I honed my skills through extracurricular involvement in the Hospitality & Event Management Club and Pi Lambda Chi Latina Sorority, Inc., where I coordinated a wide range of events, both large and small.

Now, I am ready to continue expanding my professional journey outside of higher education and into a fulfilling career.
