“I was fortunate enough to realise early on in life that the hospitality industry was my passion. After interning at Australian Fashion Week at 19, I was hooked by the fast-paced industry. Having been brought up in London and then living in Sydney, I moved to Hong Kong in 2014. In my 8 years here I have worked with some of the city's top catering companies and restaurants on unforgettable events such as Prada Mode HK in 2019. My passion for the hospitality industry is to provide clients with exceptional service and bring their events to life far beyond their expectations.”
