Six years into this action-packed, thrilling and incredible industry and loving every minute of it! Being the Lead Editor at EventSource means I get to experience a whole new level of wedding and special event amazing-ness! Every morning I open up my inbox to a whole new set of jaw-dropping event photos submitted by the industry’s top leaders and get to share their work with you! Of course, all work and no play makes Amy a dull girl. I love giving back as well! I’m a huge animal lover and wish I could have a house full of dogs. Alas, I cannot so I volunteer my time to a local charity raising funds to help build a new animal shelter. As the Chair of Fundraising, I help plan and coordinate their signature fundraising events including the annual “Gimme Shelter Gala”. When I’m not writing or attending events, you can find me playing trains with my nephews, trying to make a dent in the ever-growing stack of books everyone says I should read, enjoying a good cup of tea or catching a Zumba fitness class!
