What is Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreI’ve always been drawn to experiences that bring people together … especially through music, celebration, storytelling, and design. My background spans music, education, performance, hospitality, and design, and I realized early on that events are where all of those passions intersect. Entrepreneurship allowed me to build something that reflects my values: creativity, cultural connection, and excellence in service. I followed in the footsteps of my entrepreneurial father.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated by focusing on the bigger vision. Entrepreneurship isn’t always easy—there are long hours, unexpected challenges, and constant problem-solving—but those moments are also what create growth. Every challenge is an opportunity to refine the business, strengthen our team, and deliver even better experiences for our clients.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest the $25,000 into hiring full-time team members and expanding Blue Diamond Events into larger cities across the U.S. My goal is to scale a company that elevates the entire event ecosystem … creating better experiences for clients while supporting vendors, venues, and creative professionals. I believe the future of events is collaborative, innovative, and community-driven.
