Emily has never been one to shy away from new experiences. So, when her manager for her huskers internship told her to apply for an internship with the philanthropic arm of the Academy of Country Music (ACM), Emily didn't hesitate to go for it.
“Our team was in charge of ‘Country on the Green,’ which is a Topgolf fundraiser tournament that then transforms into a country music concert with huge headliners. There were so many moving parts and only three of us on our team, so I really got to touch every tiny detail of putting together a massive event like this.”
When the night finally came and Emily saw all those details coming together successfully, she knew the feeling she was experiencing meant that she’d found her career path.
“When the golf ended and they started constructing the stage, I got so emotional...I’ve always wanted to work in events, and now, after this, I could never imagine not working in this industry.”
