Mikala WilsonEvent ManagerAOO Events

At the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Mikala earned a degree in Meeting and Events Management although she had already had an education in hospitality from the best teachers in the world – her family and their own brand of southern hospitality.  Mikala recently received the acronym of CMP after her name, in her quest for continuing education. Putting both to use for our events here at AOO, Mikala is focused on adding and refining those touches that elevate your guests’ experience. She brings a diverse sensibility to our team and outlook on event. Her experience working as an event coordinator with non-profits and educational institutions brings a diverse sensibility and outlook to our future event. Mikala’s forte is curating a distinctive event tailored for you and your goals.
