The most impactful part of the RHM program for me was my internship. I worked at Backwater Jacks in Bonita Springs where I was their Event Coordinator for almost two years. I learned how to create BEOs, work with stakeholders, how F&B is priced, how to plan menus, I ran week-in-review meetings and learned other transferrable skills that I still use to this day.”
