Ferris State University While being active and pursuing my degree at Ferris, I would volunteer and work different events here and there to build my network. The events listed are some I would remember for both the good and the bad, all a lesson learned and new skills developed. ​ I am forever grateful for the mentors I had met along the way and those who still support me no matter what state I land in. These skills are used in new ways everyday and I hope to continue to work hard and make them proud of where I am.

Boyne Highlands This was my first internship in the Hospitality program at Ferris State! Located in Harbor Springs, MI a small town just under the Mighty Mac, it is a key spot for tourists, golfers especially. ​ My role was an Events Coordinator/Intern. I learned the behind the scenes of handling guests concerns, working at the country club, and how to deal with a groom who changes his mind prior to walking down the aisle. ​ The connections I've made while working here are ones I will never forget!

Grand Lake Lodge is a historic lodge overlooking the small town of Grand Lake, sitting at 8969 ft. high in the Rocky Mountain National Park this place became home in the midst of the pandemic. ​ Moving away from home had been a challenge, I was 1,298 miles from home without any idea of what I would do had something gone wrong but luckily it was one of the best decisions I had ever made. ​ I started as a host and events intern, moving my way to restaurant supervisor the following season and every other department between the two seasons there. I became more independent than ever and more knowledgeable than ever. Grand Lake Lodge

Flying Flags A campground and resort all in one, this classy area is located in Buellton, CA. With many tourist attractions and high profile guests, this place was constantly moving. ​ Many great times here leaning about different guests and systems we would use. Definitely no place like this place! ​ I had the role of Events Admin, I would bartend weddings, set up for retreats, write the welcome letters for our groups and so on. Learning to communicate with others has always been a skill anyone can improive and this helped me sharpen mine.

Devil's Thumb Resort This one challenged me. ​ I work well in high traffic areas, however not when the individual in charge is belittling everyone that works for him. I was a foodrunner, server, host, and busser within this job. Not that I believe anything is below me at all but the difficult situations I encountered helped me understand the approach to upper management that should be taken in order to resolve these complicated situations.
