Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

I’m Rilee Acrey! Founder and CEO of BalloonWorks. BalloonWorks is a leading balloon stylist company specializing in one-of-a-kind, dynamic installations thoughtfully designed to add style, creativity, and personalization to all of the amazing moments in life. BalloonWorks installations are a unique way to take any event to the next level – from birthday parties and weddings to corporate events and grand openings.

I left the corporate world to launch my own business at 24 years old and have since built a client roster made up of both brands and celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Lebron James, and Amazon. In 2 years, our team has quadrupled revenue without any outside funding.
