Meet Hayley Henning
Founder & CEO
Ms. Henning created the Characters.IO concept in 2008 at only 19 years old. To make ends meet in college, Ms. Henning spent countless hours entertaining clients all over Southern California as various princess characters. After receiving a large following, Ms. Henning began hiring other performers to service the growing demand for characters. By 2013, Characters.IO was servicing 200 events every weekend. After much success, Ms. Henning developed the concept all over the United States and has since serviced over 35,000 events nationwide. Ms. Henning is also a single-mother of two, ages 7 and 9, and resides in Southern California.
