“My favorite part of event planning is the actual day of the event when I can execute the months of planning. The challenge that comes with thinking on my feet and the energy that attendees and volunteers bring to an event is so exciting to me.”

Melanie brings great energy and experience to events and volunteer coordination at MICC. She has planned a variety of events, from concerts with an attendance of more than 1,000 people to small corporate meeting weekends. Melanie enjoys the liveliness and excitement generated by an event and celebrating milestones and special moments with her coworkers, MICC participants and volunteers. Working in events, Melanie has learned the value of flexibility and to be ready for anything.
