Traveling and Event Planning in New York
(This is Old need to edit
As a young hardworking New York City entrepreneur and college student, I looked to gain new ideas, creativity and experiences from the roles, responsibilities and people I meet along my way. As many college students I am unsure of my desired carrier path and hope that it falls into place and aligns with my passions. Over the past two years I’ve taken on a lot of responsibility becoming the social event coordinator for the Jewish Student Union, the philanthropy chairman for my fraternity and the now vice president. Within these roles I’m following my passions of event coordination and marketing.
While as philanthropy chairmen I created, set up and ran the now annual Phi Pi Hoops basketball tournament to raise money for Sharsheret. In the first year were able to gain sponsorship from Reebok to give us the ability to market the tournament on a higher level. We raise over two thousand dollars and expect to raise double if not triple that upon the event gaining in size next year.
As I grow as an individual I am always looking for bigger and better opportunity’s to expand my skills and explore what this world has to offer.
