PresidentAnna McdanielAnna has grown up around weddings and events, and has a background in Architecture and Interior Design, Art, and after a directional change, received her degree in Psychology. After Anna planned her own wedding, she knew that planning weddings was her dream job - and so she started Fancy That. It wasn't long until Anna decided to leave her full time job and make events her career focus. Her love of people, passion for helping others, building community, & excitement for life have made her the perfect person to oversee this position.

Vice PresidentMike McCalebMike got his start making demo reels for comedians while he was an assistant manager at the Brea Improv comedy club. His favorite class in film school was Documentary Film.
He used to be a baseball umpire, so he’s used to getting yelled at. Mike has been a filmmaker for (almost) twenty years. 19. He loves it. He equally loves shooting and editing. He also loves laughing, and feeling like he is making a difference for people. Mike was previously involved with Wedding Industry Professionals Association, and Association of Bridal Consultants. His experience in these networking groups brings knowledge and ideas for IEP to build from. Mike is easy to get along with, comfortable, and friendly, because he doesn’t have to worry about what comes next. He already knows. He’s been there. He would love to be there for you, too. |

MembershipJordan LarmayGrowing up, Jordan was always the event planner. Hosting themed parties for holidays or the end of school was her specialty in graded school. It was only natural for her to go to college and pursue a degree in Event Management. After interning and working in the events industry since 2011, she took a leap of faith to take over Unveiled Design and Events from its original owner in 2015. In 2021, she quit her "9-5" job and made this side hustle a full time gig. She enjoys networking and connecting with all event industry professionals, which makes her a great fit to oversee membership for IEP.
