How would you describe what you do to someone who doesn’t know how a box office works?

I would probably give them an analogy. When you want to gain access to a room, and you need a key to do it, I’m the person who is able to provide the key for you. Because it has to be the right key – not just any key will fit for every room, and there’s a lot of aspects to choosing a ticket for an event.

What Mercer Ticket Sales event are you most excited about this year?

Actually, Ain’t Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations. I’m really excited, because I snuck a listen to the cast album, and I thought ooh, I like this. I grew up listening to The Temptations with my grandmother, so it’s nostalgic for me. I have not sat through a symphony for awhile, so I want to go see the last Macon-Mercer Symphony Orchestra concert. I think I will stay in the audience for that one. And I am a football girl! Football is going to have my heart, even though I like basketball. Mercer University football is having a great season, they are currently ranked in the top 25.

What’s your favorite Broadway musical?

It’s an amalgamation, I can’t choose. Every musical I do love has a hint of an edgy underdog story. So of course, there’s Hamilton and then I love some Wicked, Hadestown, and Mean Girls. My millennial heart loves October 3rd. I love so many!
