Today we’d like to introduce you to Kia Peterson.
Hi Kia, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
When I was attending Wichita State University- I would enjoy helping plan and organize events
and parties for my sorority ( Alpha Kappa Alpha) and other college friends.
Then I helped plan a few weddings and events and loved the process of it.
I took a break from event planning when I moved back to the KC area.
I got married and had my daughter. I was focused on my career in the hotel industry.
After awhile- I started thinking about my passions in life, so I started planning friend’s
birthdays and small events. Then I had a friend who needed a day of wedding planner,
so, I stepped in to help. After Covid, I decided life is short and I should do things I enjoy.
So, I started planning events- part time. I have been focused on planning all kind of events
that will help people celebrate special moments in life.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
The main struggle is working a full time job- while I am working on my event business.
There is never enough time in the day to get everything done.
I am hoping in the next few years- to operate my business full time.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am an event planner. I plan out and coordinate events for clients.
I specialize in all events, big and small.
I am most proud of planning my 20 year wedding anniversary in Belize.
I try to add fun to the planning process.
What’s next?
I plan on do more marketing and attending trade shows and wedding expos.
To do more post on social media.
