Today we’d like to introduce you to Angineh Meserkhani.
Hi Angineh, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.Briehappyboards started from my love of bringing people together through good food, beautiful presentation, and memorable experiences. What began as a creative passion for making cheese and charcuterie boards gradually grew into a catering business that allows me to be part of some of life’s most special moments.
As I continued creating boards for friends, family, and events, I realized how much I enjoyed not only the food itself, but also the creativity that goes into designing each setup. From intimate celebrations and showers to weddings, galas, corporate events, and everything in between, I began expanding beyond individual boards into grazing tables, appetizers, small bites, and customized catering experiences.
Over time, Briehappyboards has grown through word of mouth, social media, and the incredible support of our customers. Every event has helped me learn, grow, and become more confident in my business. Today, my goal is to create beautiful, delicious, and stress-free food experiences that allow my clients to enjoy their celebrations while I take care of the details.
What started as a love for creating beautiful boards has become something I’m truly proud to call my business. I’m excited to continue growing Briehappyboards, meeting new people, and creating food experiences that bring people together.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?It definitely hasn’t been a completely smooth road. Like any small business, there have been challenges, especially when it comes to finding new customers, building a consistent online presence, and getting people to discover my business.
One of the biggest challenges has been learning how to balance the creative side of the business with everything that comes with running a business—marketing, social media, responding to clients, pricing, planning, and making sure every event goes smoothly. There have been times when I’ve questioned whether I was doing enough or growing fast enough.
At the same time, those challenges have pushed me to learn and grow. Every event, customer, and experience has taught me something new. I’ve learned to be more confident in my work, listen to my customers, and keep improving rather than expecting everything to be perfect.
I’m still growing and figuring things out, but I’m proud of how far Briehappyboards has come. The challenges have made the journey more meaningful and have motivated me to keep building something that I truly love.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?Briehappyboards is a catering business specializing in beautifully styled cheese and charcuterie boards, grazing tables, appetizers, and small bites for celebrations and events. We create customized food displays for weddings, showers, birthdays, corporate events, galas, and intimate gatherings.
What I love most about my work is the creative process. I enjoy taking an idea, theme, or vision from a client and turning it into something beautiful, delicious, and memorable. I’m known for creating grazing tables that are not only full of great food, but also feel like a centerpiece for the event.
What I’m most proud of is how much Briehappyboards has grown and the relationships I’ve built with my customers along the way. Seeing my work become part of someone’s wedding, celebration, or special event is incredibly rewarding.
I think what sets Briehappyboards apart is the attention to detail and the personal touch I bring to every event. I don’t want clients to simply have good food—I want them to feel like they can relax and enjoy their event without having to worry about the food or presentation. Every setup is thoughtfully designed to fit the occasion, from rustic and intimate to elegant and sophisticated.
For me, Briehappyboards is about more than cheese and charcuterie. It’s about bringing people together, creating beautiful experiences, and making hosting feel a little more effortless.
What were you like growing up?Growing up, I was always a very social and creative person. I loved being around people, making connections, and being part of gatherings and celebrations. I’ve always had an eye for little details and enjoyed making things feel special, whether it was putting something together, decorating, or finding creative ways to make an experience memorable.
I was also someone who cared a lot about the people around me. I’ve always enjoyed bringing people together and making sure everyone felt comfortable and included. Looking back, I can see how those parts of my personality naturally led me to what I do today.
I never necessarily imagined that I would own a catering business, but the creativity, social side, and love of bringing people together were always there. Briehappyboards really became a way for me to combine all of those things into something of my own.
