Our Story

My passion for creating exceptional experiences runs deep—it’s been with me since childhood. Growing up, I loved helping my family prepare for all the parties and get-togethers we hosted. Whether it was setting the table or helping with decorations, I found so much joy in making sure everything was just right. That love for hosting stuck with me as I grew up and carried me through many roles in the hospitality industry.

When I started Refined Planning, I wanted the name to reflect exactly what I aim to offer—an easy, refined approach to event planning. I truly believe planning an event shouldn’t feel stressful. It should feel personal, enjoyable, and, most importantly, all about YOU. I want to hear your vision, your preferences, your story, and your guests’ needs. My goal is for you to feel seen and to know that every decision I make is in your best interest.

I’ll be honest—owning a company wasn’t something I always dreamed of (you know what they say: people make plans, and God laughs!). But here I am, doing what I love every single day: working with incredible people and serving them to the best of my ability. I believe that exceptional service comes from a servant’s heart, and that’s something I bring to every event I plan. Looking for inspiration as you plan your next event?
