Jill Hawkins

Co-Founder @ Eaton Fire Collaborative

About

I began event planning in 1987. I worked for several float builders for the Tournament of Roses Parade as an event producer. Following this, I began working as an assistant to a top-end Hollywood party planner, designing weddings, baby showers, corporate parties and many other events. I became an event coordinator for one of the most popular entertainment companies in the party business – planning events from weddings to Bar/Bat Mitzvahs. My highly organized nature and passion for planning events created Miller Hawkins Productions which later became MHPevents. MHPevents is a full service Event Management company, specializing in the detailed production of Corporate, Private, and Social Events. At MHP, we appreciate and value our client’s diversity and uniqueness and therefore take great pride in our ability to anticipate our clients’ needs. Ultimately, we strive to produce an unforgettable event, with meticulous attention to detail, style and organization. Don't Worry. We Will. www.mhpevents.com Specialties: Event Management - Conferences, Trade Shows, Galas, Golf Tournaments, Meetings, Social & Private Events
