So who is Lisa? I am a thirtysomething mom of two amazing boys, and a wife-lucky enough to be married for 16 years to my best friend. I also have the greatest group of girlfriends in the world -they are my village and I consider each and every one of them to be like family.

With a life so full of family and friends, how do I find time for anything else? Well there are a few more things you should know about me...I can't sit still and have a need to constantly be busy. Most of my friends would say I am very Type A (but in a good way) and slightly ADD. I am an insomniac and I find that some of my most productive hours are between midnight and two am.

How did I stumble into PARTY FAVORITES?  In my life before my kids, I was an event planner.  Although it feels like it was a lifetime ago, the skills I learned in my former life have stuck with me.  I will forever be obsessed with details.  After having my first child, I no longer wanted to travel and work crazy hours so I went to work in the promotional products industry.  My favorite clients were in the special event industry- from corporate event planners who needed creative conference giveaways to party planners who needed custom Bar Mitzvah favors.  Over the years word spread about my “flair for favors” and I started doing “favors” for friends. Two years ago I realized that I could create a business creating party favors and finishing touches for special events and PARTY FAVORITES was born. With the addition of the blog FAVORITE THINGS and the PARTY PORTFOLIO, life has become a little crazier but I am loving every minute it!
