What They Don't Teach You At Stanford Business School

B-schooler snub their nose at event planning and always delegate this 'chore'. I don't.

AfterParties are entrepreneurial. It required doing hundreds of little things right.

The same skill set in starting up a business is needed in producing a party. Both have multiple orgs and sub-orgs that need to be satisfied and wide-ranging multiple agendas to be fulfilled. It's called "multiple party agenda fulfillment".

Are you buying any of my MBA speak?! Ok, confessional... I just don't wanna go home after a party, so I produce after parties.

AfterParties reflect my personality in that they are
- fun
- food focused
- hydration based (i.e. we drink Fiji Water)
- and fun
