Community Engagement Coordinator
The Horticulture Society @ Uh
Houston, Texas, United States
As the Community Engagement Coordinator, part of my role was advertising the club meeting times via the University of Houston's Advertising Televisions. This consisted of researching and contacting 25+ people to place the advertisements, creating eight ads of various sizes, working with the team of officers for club approval, receiving university approval of said ads, and regularly updating the ads each month, as well as teaching the future officers how to use my compiled data form for future use.My role also consisted of reaching out to people in person, whether through teachers and faculty in my classes or through public plant-related functions. Our first major event was Plantcon 2023, where we networked with roughly 50+ nursery and plant-related businesses to receive support throughout the school year. Microlife donated fertilizer & money donations, and we had multiple businesses come visit our greenhouse to give speeches.Essential responsibilities in this role included attending weekly meetings, arriving early to prepare for meetings, brainstorming ideas for the meetings or events through communication with the other officers, and editing our constitution to reflect the values of the 23-24 academic year.
