Pro Tip: Packing list for events
Here are a few things to bring to events:
Water bottle
Hot tea
Thumb drive with slides as backup
Lumbar pillow if sitting in club chairs (unless you are over 6 feet tall)
Clinical strenth anti-perspirant (I’m an all natural gal, except when I’m going to be filmed or in front of a big audience!)
Hair spray and hair fasteners
And, I just learned a wonderful new trick from Brooke Braun, the Marketing and Communications Director at the McIntire School of Commerce at UVA: always bring a KILT PIN! One of her panelists brought a handful to an event. Why? They are perfect to secure the transmitter for wireless microphones!
