Nearly Done with Classes

Well I'm nearly done with classes. I have one more class to take online in the Fall and then I'll be done with the certificate in Event/Meeting Management.

I'm now looking for internships to apply the skills I have learned. I have had the opportunity to work a few events as a student. I worked one event last week and found that I have a talent for organization especially with prepping signs, handouts, and other materials for the workshops by day and room. I also enjoyed being MOD (Manager on Duty) especially working the breaks and working with the conference center food and beverage staff. I also liked ringing the chimes to help to lead the conference participants back to their sessions.

I would like to find something more full time and still looking for an opportunity but feel that I should focus on an intern level and maybe that can lead to something full time.
