New Grisham scheduler brings experience on the big day to Congress' day-to-day

Posted by Jenna Ebersole on May 29, 2015

For most Hill staffers, their background before arriving in Washington includes fellowships and top-level undergraduate and law degrees. But for one new scheduler, her recent job history includes running her own wedding planning business.

Natalie Armijo founded Oh, So Natty LLC in July 2014, specializing in day-of event coordination, including weddings and other events in the Albuquerque, New Mexico area. She started the business several years after leaving Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town where she was event ambassador, coordinating events.

"From the rehearsal, to chair covers, to fluffing the bride's dress when she walks down the aisle, to the champagne toast...Every detail is covered," Armijo writes on her business' website. 

Now, Armijo works for Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham (D-N.M.) in a job that also requires a high-level of day-to-day coordination. Her other experience includes working for Sandia National Laboratories, The Garrity Group and DW Turner Communications.

Armijo has a 2007 bachelor's in mass communication, journalism and Spanish and an MBA in marketing in 2010 from the University of New Mexico.
