Internship Spotlights

Marlee Tobik

I am General Business Major specializing in Event Management graduating in 2025.

I am a balloon designer for a local business as well as with my mom's company Stacey Tobik Designs which does wooden party backdrops. I started doing this for school events and then started into customers. I love how you get to help bring together people's events and their visions (and how can you be upset around balloons?!).

Helen Abernethy

I am majoring in Advertising and minoring in Event Management, but my heart is with event management.

Over the course of my college career, I have planned 4 weddings and have loved every second of each one. In this picture, I am standing with the bride to be on her big day. I was the wedding planner and wedding coordinator for this event last month and I ran the wedding independently.

Chris Adair

I am a third-year Business Administration major with a specialization in Event Management.

Every year, we do a philanthropy for our fraternity known as Pike Halftime, and I have the privilege of helping run the event, serving as Philanthropy Chair. All the proceeds go to an organization known as CHOMP Cancer, which was founded by one of our alumni. My job is to organize sponsorships, assist in the Dream Girl competition, and run our social media page before and during the event. Last year, we raised $35,000 for the event!
