Patrice Klaum

Originally as an Architecture major, Patrice decided to attend Arizona State University in order to take advantage of their honors college, Barrett. She is currently in the process of obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree in Design Studies (Design Management) with a certificate in Special Event Management from Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts at Arizona State University. Patrice volunteers regularly with event production companies like Living Energy in Scottsdale, Arizona, and she does freelance design work for Professor J. Mike Davis in WP Carey’s Department of Finance and Real Estate. As a new Associate Planner with Celebrations by Amy Bacon, Patrice enjoys being able to coordinate events and help clients in any way that she can on their special days. Patrice is a city girl with a country heart and therefore feels like she belongs in the Raleigh-Durham area when she gets her degree to begin working as an event planner. The website Pinterest.com is something she thinks will be counted in her life as one of the most influential tools towards fighting boredom and generating creative ideas for any and everything in her life.
