Hello! My name is Elyse Blevins and I am a senior majoring in Hospitality Event Management and minoring in Business Administration. I am from Savannah, Georgia, but, growing up, I spent every summer in West Virginia working at my Dad and Step-Mother’s bakery. It was catering events with them that made me fall in love with event planning, specifically weddings. I was actually a pre-veterinary major before transferring into the program as a junior, but the Horst Schulze School of Hospitality Management has taught me more than I could have imagined these past two years. Outside of School and working both as a Server at The Laurel Hotel and Spa Rooftop and as a wedding planning assistant for Calla Rose Planning, I am also the president of Auburn University’s IHSA Equestrian Team. All this knowledge and experience has me eager to showcase not only my own talents, but also my peers at the 2025 Hospitality Gala.
