Say hello to Ariyanna Robb, a senior hospitality and event management major, concentrating in event management and hotel and resort management and minoring in business, from Trenton, Ohio.
Robb quickly found her passion for event management during high school, when she started planning events through her high school DECA program, which 鈥減repares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality and management in high schools and colleges around the globe."
鈥淚 discovered I had a special eye for detail, creativity and logistics, and started to dedicate more time to understanding events,鈥 Robb said.
When it was time for her to decide where to further her education, Robb said 小黄片视频 was her first choice because of its event planning minor and the university's welcoming community, which helped Robb feel right at home when she stepped onto campus.
Chances are you鈥檝e probably seen Robb if you鈥檝e attended a Flash Activities Board event, as she is the president of the board. Along with this position, Robb is also the president of the Professional Convention Management Association and is on the entertainment committee for Dress Up for Downs.

鈥淎 select group of students were offered the opportunity to work the step-and-repeat, VIP seating and water distribution. I was fortunate to work in all three of these areas and assist the FORBES event team,鈥 Robb said.
During her time at 小黄片视频, Robb has nurtured her love of sports by going to 小黄片视频 Athletics events and partnering with 小黄片视频 Athletics on Flash Activities Board events to introduce students to the 小黄片视频 Athletics community.
