NAU Campus Recreation

Marketing Department

GRAPHIC DESIGNER | EVENT PLANNER

This fun and face paced environment was a great place to take what I learned in class and try it first hand. Between special events, weekly Campus Rec programming, managing social media accounts, and designing graphics to promote it all, I pushed the boundaries of the Marketing Department to be more in sync with the other 7 departments within Campus Recreation. In doing so, events saw an increase in attendance, greater visibility on social media, and overall a better experience for the students of Northern Arizona University.

Sedona St. Patrick's Day Parade

EVENT PLANNER | GRAPHIC DESIGNER

What a fun event and great experience. As one of my courses at NAU I choose to take an Event Planning class to help host the Sedona St. Patrick's Day Parade. During the class we we're separated into different committees such as marketing, marching bands, sponsors, floats, social groups, firefighters and police, horses and animals, staging, elected officials, and event staff. One of my role was to develop marketing materials to promote the event and highlight the participating groups. My second role was to contact and manage the 2 high school marching bands and to be the liaison of information to these 2 groups. The resounding words from the planning process: "Hurry up and wait."

As a RA it was my responsibility to help incoming freshmen adapt to college life and to enforce the rules designated for my hall.

City of Surprise

HEAD SWIM COACH | EVENT PLANNER

My first and longest lasting job - I enjoyed every minute. Swimming competitively has been my passion since I was 9 years old. From swim lessons, city rec teams, high school, club teams, and onto college, I've been swimming a majority of my life. Once I was old enough to work, I knew I wanted to teach others about a sport I came to love so dearly. I can easily say that I found my love for event planning on the pool deck. From 2008 I've taught swim lessons, coached 7 different teams, taught CPR & First Aid classes, managed 6 different facilities, and trained hundreds in and around the pool. With it comes time to retire, I've said that I would love to end where I began - teaching others how to swim.
