Kari Willford, Founder and Owner of A Gift of Time, LLC spent 15 years in the Financial Services and Real Estate industries.  During this time, one thing she observed with most of her clients is that they always seemed to be short of time to accomplish everything they needed to.

 

In 2005, Kari took her love of creating beautiful items and started Crystal Emotions, a company specializing in hand engraved glass.  Again, many of her clients asked her for things such as picking up items to be engraved or delivering them since they were too busy to do it themselves.

 

In listening to all of these time-starved clients, the idea of "A Gift of Time" was born.  This company was formed to help its clients by taking care of tasks that take a lot of time and keep the client from doing the things they would rather be doing.

 

Kari's experience ranges from planning and organizing various events such as weddings, family reunions and corporate Christmas parties, to helping arrange gifts and recognition awards for individual and business clients.  She has also helped many clients to plan vacations and business travel.  In addition, Kari has used her skills to help businesses with short term projects.

 

Kari's personal interests include spending time with her husband and two children, golf, engraving glass, boating, fishing and crafts.
