New Member Spotlight – Erin Garrick

Erin Garrick
Student - Bowling Green State University


Who are the most important people in your life?  The most important  people in my life are my parents and two sisters.
 
Who do you work for and what is your role?  I am a student at Bowling Green State University.

What is the best thing about your job?  Being a student at Bowling Green and being in the THEM or Tourism, Hospitality, and Event Management program is rewarding. Also, being a part of MPI Falcons is an experience like no other, getting to go to MPI events and networking and meeting professionals is a learning experience personally and professionally. 

What are the 3 most important skills you use at work?  As a student, the three most important skills I use during school is organization, time management, and good communication.

What one piece of advice would you give to someone beginning their career in the Meeting Industry?  I changed my major last semester to THEM so I would give them the same advice I give myself; learn, have fun, and keep an open mind.

What super-power would you love to have to help you do your job better?  A super-power I would love to have to help me become a better student is the power of teleportation. There is always places to go, activities to do, and classes to tend, sometimes I wish I could just appear wherever I need to be.
