Raffaella has years of experience in planning large and small events and loves the great experiences that are created by bringing people together, whether for fun or for educational purposes. She thrives on multitasking and is extremely organized.
The mother of four stepped back from event planning to grow her family and be a stay-at-home mom until her youngest child entered school. She came back to the workforce and joined Nichols Wealth Partners alongside husband Chris. Working together as a team is nothing new to the couple as they met in an office setting years ago.
Raffaella believes there is nothing more exciting than seeing a project or event come to life and enjoys when others can enjoy the fruits of her labor…especially when it involves cooking and food.
She loves to cook cuisine from her Greek-Italian roots, and her kiddos and husband say she is the best “cooker” in the world. They all love to help mama in the kitchen and are wonderful sous chefs.
Raffaella loves fashion, decorating, travelling and is a food aficionado. She also loves DIY projects around the home, spending time with friends and family and will never turn down a good brunch!
