Introduction	From teddy bear tea parties to charity fashion shows, Tia McLaurin knows how to plan the perfect event. A graduate of North Carolina State University, her degree in Sociology, all but spells social. That's why, in July of 2009, she launched The Perfect Plan, an event planning firm located in Raleigh. Tia's heart belongs in North Carolina, with its rich history, amazing landscapes and fine southern folks. And who better to plan and throw a party than a true southerner? Just as Tia's a native to the Tarheel state (but a fan of Duke where she teaches event planning classes for their nonprofit certificate program), Tia was, for all practical purposes, born into event planning. At the ripe age of ten, she was tasked with the napkin fold and bow tie activities associated with various social events. If you've ever tried to tie the perfect bow, you know, it's a skill in and of itself. Got a challenge for her? Bring it on. This poker player can't be beat. Her name alone, translated to "fire" by a village in the Congo, reflects the passion and heat she puts to any project, including the highly successful cheerleaders she's coached for ten years. Passion. Skill. Creativity. The Perfect Plan.
