About Mary Lee Ferrin
Expertise
I can answer any questions about hosting or participating in a murder mystery party.

Experience
I have been hosting murder mystery parties for 9 years. I owned a murder mystery dinner theater for a year. 4 years ago I started writing my own murder mystery parties and began selling them on the web. Within weeks I had to choose between my dinner theater and my party kit site. I just could not do both. I love writing so I choose to continue this and I have never looked back. My site Dinner and a Murder Mystery Games is one of the largest most authorative web sites on the web relating to murder mystery parties. I have an extensive forum in which I answer murder mystery questions. I also write articles. http://www.dinnerandamurder.co

Organizations
Better Business Bureau

Publications
I was featured in the Tennessean & my articles are published on the web in numerous places.

Education/Credentials
Numerous creative writing classes, art classes.

Awards and Honors
I have won some cool site and game site awards in the past, but I no longer post these on my site.

Past/Present clients
I have quite a few famous clients, but I would never reveal their identity to protect their privacy.

Question
i want to be an event planner and i dont know what degree to get in college. what degree should i get?

Answer
Hello Hailey,

Event planners will find many qualifications to be helpful. Here are just a few:

• Event planners should be well organized and skilled in coordinating event logistics.
• They should have excellent presentation skills as they have to clearly communicate information effectively and persuasively.
• Knowledge of media relations and marketing is important when promoting events.
• Event planners typically possess bachelor's degrees in business administration, marketing, tourism or hospitality administration.

I hope this helps!

Mary Lee
