Kelli is one of the best and most qualified individuals I have ever worked with when it comes to planning events. She is customer service personified. The venue was wonderful, food was incredible, service was excellent.

I wanted to follow-up with a note to express my utmost gratitude for organizing, planning and executing the Unidine Gala for LeadingAge. It has been called the ‘event of the week’ and I have all of you to thank for it. The presentation of the food and the food itself was superb and every detail exceeded my expectations.
