So I finally gave in to the world of blogging....
It was recommended by so many that said it is a good idea, especially for a new business. I thought for my first blog it would be appropriate to let everyone know what all is going on in the life of KP! This blogspot will be specifically for my business: CHEERS Event Planning, but I've got a whole lot more going on than that!!!
First of all, I am working ALL THE TIME. I am still working at Baptist East as a Physical Therapist Assistant. I also have been working at Campbells Clinic since September as a PTA, I love it! I am the Executive Director of the National Cheer Safety Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising the bar in safety for cheerleading and youth sports. There's a lot going on at the NCSF, too! Oh yeah, I am also studying to get my CSCS (certified strength and conditioning specialist) This is helpful as a Physical Therapist Assistant but also for the foundation. It will allow my to educate cheerleaders and coaches on appropriate strengthening exercises as well as body mechanics in order to decrease injuries in the sport. ...enough of that, if you want to know more, just ask. I could talk about that stuff for days :)

My most recent endeavor is CHEERS Event Planning, I launched my website in November 2009 and things are really taking off. I did my first bridal show in February and it went Great! Thanks to my husband and friend Brandy for their help! I am creating relationships with local vendors and working on my creative eye all the time. I may even have an intern later this summer! Oh yeah, be sure to pick up the next issue of Premier Bride Magazine and look for my ad! ( I dont think it comes out until August).
My sole focus right now is: 1) finishing my certification to become a Certified Wedding and Event Planner. 2) marketing CHEERS to the memphis and surrounding areas. 3) making connections with vendors. 4) having fun planning amazing events!!!!

I guess thats it for now but be sure to stay tuned! I've got big plans in store for CHEERS Event Planning!
