Ohio’s Finest Wine Tasting is a yearly wine tasting presented by the Buckeye Undergraduate Consulting Club’s (BUCC) Business Analysts. The wine tasting is a philanthropic event with proceeds benefitting the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Oncology/Hematology Department. I worked on the marketing committee to rebrand our event and to extend the reach of our event to all neighboring areas of Columbus and any nearby young professional or OSU alum groups in the area. The work I invested in this project taught me a lot about how to approach difficult communications like asking strangers for donations or support. Candidly, this was my first experience that jump started my interest in my emotional intelligence and leadership skills.
