About LaLa

I earned my degree in Communications from Troy University, followed by a master’s in Advertising and Public Relations from the University of Alabama. My love for people and events led me to Birmingham, where I began my career as an assistant wedding planner with Occasions by Symone Shaw—a role I still enjoy part-time. Now back in my hometown of Dothan, I’m grateful to be close to my roots. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me cheering on Manchester United with my boyfriend or curled up with my beloved cat, Mr. Kitty Cudi.

Fun Fact: In 2015, I had the incredible honor of being crowned Miss National Peanut Festival. That same year, I snapped a photo on the grand spiral staircase at LAM before the peanut parade—never imagining it would one day be the office I’d walk into every day for work. Life has a funny way of coming full circle!

Favorite Hobby: Music and DIY crafts

Favorite Quote: ""Remember who you are and whose you are." "

Favorite Food: Anything sweet- especially chocolate!

What I love about my job at LAM: The people—hands down. From our incredible team to the attendees we meet across the country, LAM brings together some of the most genuine and inspiring individuals. I love that my work lets me travel, connect, and build relationships with amazing people every day. There’s truly nothing better than being surrounded by kind, passionate humans—and thanks to LAM, I get to do just that.
