Sarah Gorajek

It might be easier to describe what my job doesn't include! Our small department within BNP Media manages webinars and virtual trade shows for the over 60 B2B publications that we own. That puts about 15 magazines featuring about 70 webinars per year under my coordination. I stay very busy with everything from helping sales staff sell the product to managing every detail on live event day. Much of my time is spent creating promotions for each program and I'm very lucky to be able to incorporate my desire to be creative with my analytical skills to have a position which I truly love. I am always on my toes, but also able to immediately and effectively implement ideas that contribute to our company.

When I'm away from my desk, I volunteer for a 100% No-Kill Animal Rescue, Almost Home Animal Rescue League, based in Southfield, Michigan. It's a cause that I strongly believe in and work on the Fundraising/Events committee to create/promote/manage programs that raise money to help love these wonderful animals.

I love Detroit, the surrounding areas and Michigan. My hope is that we can pull together and once again become a place that people want to call home. Go Spartans!

Amanda Bate

Working at Arzika is both a pleasure and a challenge.  I enjoy the freedom of brainstorming to come up with new and better ways to work on our events.  At 23, I attend meetings and know that my opinion is listened to and taken into consideration or execution.  

As the Communications Specialist at Arzika, I am able to wear many hats working within many different departments including PR, marketing, production and operations.  Multi-tasking and time management are a must in my everyday life.  While I enjoy having various tasks throughout the day, keeping up with all 4 departments is always a challenge.

My schedule changes hour to hour, I never know what I will be doing for what department and I love it! Working in such a fast paced environment makes the day go by so much faster and keeps from becoming monotonous.

Currently I have been able to place several students with employment with major companies. In order to do this, I write students’ resumes, to highlight the necessary skills to find employment, I meet with students one on one to discuss interview techniques and perform mock interviews with students so they are comfortable to meet with companies in Michigan to  “sell” their skills. I conduct job workshops that students attend to discuss topics involved in a job search. I continue to build relationships with Hiring Managers at companies and local Recruiters to seek out job opportunities for students. Most importantly, I build student’s confidence and motivate them to move on with their career. This an opportunity for me to use my skills to spend a considerable amount of time with assisting unemployed students with finding a new job. It feels good to share my experiences.

Anna VanderMarliere

I feel very fortunate to have two jobs that I absolutely love! I'm a producer/board operator (DJ) for the Karsch and Anderson show on 97.1 The Ticket, WXYT. Working in sports radio has always been a dream of mine, and I couldnt ask for a better environment or better co-workers than I have at the Ticket. I have always been very proud to be from the best sports city in America, and having the opportunity to work for the flagship station for Detroits 4 major sports puts me right in the middle of the action. Everyday, I learn, laugh and interact with fascinating people and passionate Detroit sports fans.
 
Ten years ago, I turned one of my biggest passions into a profession. I am Goalie Coach for local AAA  Ice Hockey organizations and high school programs; and 4 years ago started my own business, Point Blank Hockey School, LLC.  Point Blank specialize's in on-ice and off-ice training for Goaltenders, Girls High School programs and Youth Skill and Development. Having grown up in St. Clair Shores, playing hockey has always been an enormous part of my life and provided me with  friendships and memories that I hold dear to my heart. However, although playing was a blast, coaching gives me gratification beyond words. Seeing these children progress and gain confidence both on and off the ice, is an amazing feeling. This game has created so many opportunities for me and made so many of my dreams come true; if I can help just one player succeed and have those opportunities that they dream about, I will have accomplished my goal as a coach.
 
I look forward to going to work everyday and am so grateful to be from, live in and give back to Metro Detroit.

Amanda Hanna

Not many people can say they landed their dream job right out of college, but that's exactly what happened to me. I joined the Arzika team and have watched the company nearly double in size since I came on board. In the events business, things are constantly changing and evolving and your to-do list changes on almost a minute-to-minute basis, which can be kind of crazy. As the design and marketing specialist, I spend most of my time doing design work, which includes everything from creating logos to designing marketing collateral to making website updates, and the other part focused on marketing. I love coming to work because every day holds new and exciting challenges and the people I work with are very supportive of each other. We have a great culture and laugh a lot, so even if we’re working long hours at least we’re having fun!
