Q&A with Hannah Horvath
What is your position with Primerus, how long have you been with Primerus, and what can members and clients come to you for?
I am the Event Coordinator at Primerus. I have been with Primerus for a little over a year now. I started in June of 2022. I am happy to answer questions about our upcoming events.
What was your very first job?
Throughout high school I worked at a flower shop. I loved that job so much! I learned valuable customer service skills and dabbled in floral design.
How did your career path lead you to your current position?
I graduated from Grand Valley State University in Michigan with a degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management with an emphasis in Event Management and a minor in Business. I completed three internships during college and through those experiences and my classes, I thought planning corporate events would be the best fit for me.
Hannah, Henry, and her family recently attended a White Sox game at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago, Illinois.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
My parents taught me to make the best out of a situation and have a positive outlook on life.
What is one thing you would like to learn to do?
I would like to learn how to grow a beautiful cut flower garden.
What is your proudest career achievement?
I am proud of the Primerus events I’ve planned with Sheila Buchanan so far! I am looking forward to our Global Conference this year in Versailles. This is the first international conference I have planned.
What other career path might you have chosen?
When I was younger, I wanted to be a teacher just like my mom. I always had fun helping in her classroom.
What is your most treasured material possession?
The necklace my grandma passed down to me when I was in eighth grade. It has a dainty gold cross charm and an Edelweiss charm. Edelweiss is the national flower of Austria, which is where my grandma was born. I spent a lot of time with my grandma growing up, so this necklace is very dear to me.
What is your happiest childhood memory?
I loved attending my brother Cole’s sporting events with my family. It was very fun cheering him on in baseball and football. I liked when we made vacations out of his out-of-state tournaments, too.
