nightclub promoter. As a graphic designer she has designed for top 10 companies such as the Carlisle Development Group

she has done, and loved, all of her life. The long hours, the sleepless nights and the thousands of pictures have all contributed
to this accomplishment.
Milancita.com is no longer just a website to see photos from the neighborhood club; it has grown into a seal of excellence in
our community. Weekly events hosted by Milan have broken every standard, expectation and stereotype by pushing the envelope on the Miami
nightlife week after week. She has truly developed an upscale promoting agency that pays attention to detail, those small things that really make a
night special. Whenever attending a party hosted by Milancita, one can be sure to have a good time. It's always upbeat, fun, sexy and exciting.
