The rewards are working toward a greater goal and mission, one I am passionate about. I find it inspiring and motivating to be able to interact and learn from a community of education entrepreneurs changing the face of public education.

In event planning, there are several minute details that need to be managed. Learning to step back and see the big picture is important, but sometimes hard to do and one can easily get caught in the weeds of the work.

What I love is that there is no typical day or week, with event planning, things change on a whim and there is always a different deadline to meet.
