We are so excited to welcome our 2014 summer intern to the Five Grain Events team! Nicole has written a bit about herself and what she hopes to gain from her experience with us this summer…
Hi everyone! My name is Nicole Crifase and I will be the summer intern at Five Grain Events this year. I am currently studying Spanish at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, though last semester I studied abroad in Barcelona, Spain. After planning many different events for my sorority, Delta Gamma, I learned that I enjoyed planning and organizing events and, even more, than that I liked watching everyone come together to celebrate, laugh and spend time with their loved ones in a moment that I helped create.
I am so excited to have an opportunity to learn the ins and outs of the industry with the help of Joan and her team. I am looking forward to being involved at the big events but also to be a part of all the work that is done behind the scenes to make these events truly special for everyone. I hope to gain valuable information about the business thanks to Five Grain’s impressive repertoire of events. During the summer I’ll be in the office, where I will be working on a few organizational projects as well as on-site at weddings in order to learn how to maneuver the exciting rush of the big day. I can’t wait to dive into all that Joan and her team have planned for the summer!

Good luck and have fun! Joan is the best there is, so you’re sure to learn a ton!
