I am passionate about business, relationships, mentoring, faith, my family, adventure, pushing my limits and helping people transform themselves.
About Lara: Lara Casey was born in Washington, D.C. but spent most of her youth on the shores of Pensacola Beach, Florida. Lara graduated with honors from Carnegie Mellon University and studied art and design at Yale University. Her success are wide-ranging: Lara has worked as a celebrity personal trainer in Manhattan and served as a contributor to Shape magazine. Lara wears many hats within her parent company, Lara Casey Media. She currently is the Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Southern Weddings® magazine, founder of the Making Things Happen movement and a noted branding expert with her luxury wedding market consulting firm, Lara Casey Reps. Lara frequently speaks on branding, marketing and the luxury wedding market. She has been a speaker at such noted events as Engage!, WPPI, Eventology, WedSmith, The Total Package and on the Making Things Happen Tour, which recently completed its 27th national tour stop. She is especially grateful for the many hats she wears through Lara Casey Media, and is inspired daily by the hand she plays in helping others soar. Lara lives in Chapel Hill, NC, with her husband Ari, and loves to ski, paint, eat very spicy things and TCBY (sometimes together, as she is expecting her first child on 11.11.11!) and travel. She frequently gives people her Delta Skymiles number instead of her social security number.
