About

With years of hands-on experience, I bring calm under pressure, a deep understanding of hospitality, and a genuine love for creating unforgettable moments.

Let’s plan something beautiful together.

My name is Ashley, and I'm the Owner and Principal Planner at Emerald Event Company. From luxury hotels to full-service catering, I’ve worn many hats — front of house, behind the scenes, and everywhere in between.

I’m a logistics queen, a design enthusiast, and a detail-obsessed perfectionist, backed by a Master’s in Hotel & Restaurant Management. I'm thrilled for the opportunity to bring your vision to life, from our first consult to your grand exit.

From managing timelines and navigating personalities, to solving problems before they surface — I’ve got it covered.
