Make It Happen! Wedding Coordination and More… is a culmination of thirty eight years of event planning experience and a dream come true. A French major at UCLA, Robin’s dream was to work in Europe. After graduation, she moved to France in search of work. Upon her return to California, Robin worked as an Education Specialist for IBM and as a result, fell in love with teaching. She returned to UC Irvine to complete her secondary teaching credential and taught French at Mission Viejo High School and Orange Coast Community College.

Robin’s work in event planning began in northern California in 1981. Her lengthy planning career includes Director of Catering Sales at Maxwell’s Plum, formerly of Ghirardelli Square, Wedding Sales Specialist at the Claremont Resort and Spa in Berkeley, Assistant Director of Catering at the Hilton Palacio Del Rio in San Antonio, Texas, Director of Catering Sales and Marketing for UCLA Catering, and Wedding Sales Specialist at the Sir Francis Drake, a Kimpton Hotel, where she was voted “Best of Weddings” by the Knot in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Robin worked as the Wedding Sales Specialist at the Westin St. Francis on Union Square prior to opening her own business. Brides voted her and the St. Francis “Best of Weddings 2013”… their very first award from The Knot under Robin’s watch. After four years of a long daily commute from her ranch to San Francisco and over 500 career weddings to her credit, Robin decided to make a lifetime dream come true by finally launching a business of her own, Make It Happen!
