2007-8 Officers and Directors
Melissa Gibson
Hometown: Princeton, IL
High School: Princeton High School
Major(s) at U of I: Accounting
Favorite class or instructor: Business Law
Other memories: I lived in Lincoln Avenue Residence Hall (LAR) my freshman year and later became a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority. I have fond memories home football games, the smell of South Farms and late night cramming before exams, then running out for “last call”!
Work history: My first job out of school was working for Ernst & Young as an auditor in Chicago. I left there for a position as an internal auditor for Taco Bell/PepsiCo in Southern California. After several years I decided to spread my wings (so to speak) and became a flight attendant for America West Airlines in Phoenix. I loved aviation so much that I subsequently took other positions as a charter coordinator and a corporate flight attendant. Somewhere along the way I realized that I wanted to keep my feet on the ground – so I started a catering business, AirFare Catering, with my sister this past fall that serves the private aviation community.
