"Robyn and Bryce were my planners and they were amazing! I am a very detailed person and normally am the one making sure action items happen and get done, but I could relax knowing they had everything taken care of. They are super organized, professional, & fun which reflects in their exceptional reputation in the wedding business. My guests commented on how great they were at the wedding, and they were able to execute on everything seamlessly so I could just enjoy! Highly recommend!!"

"I've had the pleasure of working with Bryce at Cradlepoint. During an extremely difficult time to plan corporate events, I can say she is an events Rockstar. Managing multiple projects, in a very uncertain time, always with a positive attitude and a smile on her face. I hope I am lucky enough to work together for a very long time."

"[Bryce], thank you for being a powerful leader, inspirational force, woman standing up for other women, and a young female entrepreneur we all could learn from who I am so very proud to know"

"Bryce is the woman at the table who sets the bar high and motivates others to strive for new heights. Bryce always takes the initiative when there is an opportunity to do more. Serving as VP Philanthropy for Alpha Chi Omega in 2018, she planned double the philanthropy events that anyone had in prior years. One of the things that makes Bryce stand out is the level of ownership she takes in every event she plans. She takes pride in her work, and it shows in all the details that make her events come together seamlessly. Bryce does a lot of research and comes up with so many inspired ideas to make an event come to life—quite literally by bringing in puppies in her philanthropy Kisses for a Cause where she broke the norm of holding exclusive events off campus and threw one in the middle of the day in one of the most high traffic locations for the benefit of spreading the most awareness for domestic violence. Bryce anticipates problems before they occur and is calm under pressure. She has a knack for gaining buy-in for her ideas. Bryce is a strong leader, leveraging others’ strengths to achieve group goals, often hosting committee brainstorming sessions and encouraging people to have active roles in her events and contribute ideas. Bryce has a high level of organizational skills, strategically leveraging organizational and communication tools. She effectively streamlines communications to coordinate with over 100 volunteers and promote her events to hundreds of attendees."

“'Enthusiastic and energetic' is how everyone thinks of Bryce. These characteristics shined through every day and were critical when you are providing operational support and day-of logistics for senior level briefings between Fortune 500 companies. Bryce was always there to meet these important clients with a smile and ensure their every need was met. Bryce is thoughtful, attentive to detail, and defines what it means to be a true team player."

"Bryce is a motivated self-starter. I knew Bryce over the last year at the Experience Center in San Francisco - a year that saw significant challenges to our business. Despite these challenges, Bryce never stopped pursuing new opportunities for the center and never feared to drive these on her own. Not only was this extremely helpful, but her positive attitude was the rising tide for our group. Bryce would be a true asset for any position requiring executive interactions, the ability to communicate across silos, and a high level of self-sufficiency"

"The years we worked with [Bryce] was one of our best. We really appreciate the love and effort [she] put into supporting Empower Yolo and our clients"

"Bryce was very detail-oriented, passionate, and enthusiastic when planning our philanthropy events. She went above and beyond her position, not only raising over $12,500 for our local non-profit but also created outreach programs to teach our community about the importance of ending domestic violence. Even in the face of adversity, Bryce continued to accomplish her goals for the betterment of our chapter."

In December 2022, I was honored to be chosen as a Featured Female, part of Dr. Erika Aragona's work to highlight female entrepreneurs and philanthropists making positive changes in their communities. Dr. Erika is a board-certified family medicine practitioner and physician media consultant with a mission to make healthcare fun and equally accessible to women. I sat down with Dr. Erika to discuss founding Women Empower Women US, my goals for making the biggest impact in the lives of survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, and fostering a world that provides equal opportunities for women of all minorities.
