  IFTSA North Atlantic Area Meeting Chair
  As head of planning the Area Meeting in the North Atlantic region, I contacted sponsors to receive $4,500 and company products for the event. I curated an environment for students across this region to network, compete, and expand their knowledge through food science-based icebreakers and a mini product development competition. This event included the infamous College Bowl Trivia Competition and Area Meeting for this region. I lead a team of 25 volunteers and facilitated the scheduled agenda.
