This event is special to me. To be clear, all of our events and weddings truly are, but on a personal level, this one speaks to me.
Fulfilling my dream of becoming an event planner grew in part from the sorrow of losing my late husband to cancer. From this loss I realized that life was short and I wanted to create a life that I loved. My dream was to own an event planning company, to one day be happily married again, and to have two children: a boy and a girl. Here I am world, these dreams have been fulfilled.
Planning the Cameco Touchdown for Dreams event fills my soul. My job is to create a beautiful and meaningful evening for women facing a life-threatening cancer diagnosis, which is anyone’s worst fear. These women deserve a night of beauty and awe—an opportunity to experience something magical and uplifting while facing undeniable challenges.
I often comment that being an event planner isn’t hard, saying “it’s not rocket science” or “We aren’t saving lives” and we certainly aren’t. What we are doing is creating beauty, connection and experiences for people. For this event in particular I am incredibly proud of that and equally grateful for the opportunity.
