Bio
Christopher Postema
I had the opportunity to work with Patricia on two successful fundraisers for U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow. In the weeks leading up to the events, it was clear that Patricia’s experience and organizational skills proved necessary to making the events successful. Her dedication to not just reaching, but surpassing our expectations was incredibly refreshing. When looking for an event planner that is organized, creative, competent, and respected within the community, I would recommend without reservations that you hire Patricia to ensure a smooth running event.
