Go Tigers & Booking for 2009-2010
Hello from LSU Tiger Country!
Happy beginning of summer! I don’t know about where you live, but in Louisiana it has been very hot! I guess snow in Hammond America in December is a good indicator of a very hot summer! It has been an exciting time to be a Louisiana resident and a LSU Tiger fan. Last night’s College World Series Game – LSU v. Texas was amazing! Those young men on both sides showed a great deal of courage and perseverance. Great example to all of us!
I am writing to let you know that I am booking for the fall and spring semesters! If you are interested in me working with your campus, organization, Greek community, or company, please let me know. For campus events, please contact Amy Butler at my booking agency – CAMPUSPEAK. Any other inquiries, please contact me at mac@marianncallais.com and we can set up a time to chat.
Hope you enjoy this week! I am heading to Theta Phi Alpha’s Leadership Conference this weekend at Purdue University. It is the first official event that I have attended since being the National President and I am looking forward to catching up and just enjoying being with some very special people in my life.
Keep cool!
Peace and Love,
Mari Ann
First Day of My New Website! Listen to Mari Ann’s Podcast
Thank you so much for stopping by! I am very excited about my new website! Thanks for the kind comments that many of you have sent to me. This would not have been possible without the help of some very talented people:
- Erin Guedry, one of my sorority sisters and former student in my freshmen leadership class, was my personal photographer. All of the pictures that I have been using on Facebook and on the website are Erin’s creations. She is an amazing photographer! Check her out at www.eringuedryphotography.com and if you live in Louisiana, I would set up your photo shoot today! Thank you Erin!
- Felix Sanchez, The Creative Marketing Director for CAMPUSPEAK was the mastermind behind the banner which corresponds with my new info flyer for my work with CAMPUSPEAK. Felix is not only creative, but he challenges me to think outside the box when it comes to marketing my speaking opportunities. He did an amazing job capturing my personality and vision. Thank you Felix for pushing me to make this happen. You can contact Felix at www.CAMPUSPEAK.com.
- Pete Lacis designed the site with me. He has taught me so much. He was easy to work with and very patient with me. If you are new at taking charge of your website, Pete is man to work with! He helped me to understand all the behind the scenes aspects of the site. Thank you Pete. I look forward to working with you again. Check out Pete at www.phaseous.com. Thank you Pete!
This has and will continue to a great journey for me!
Thank you for being a part of my experience!
Peace and Love,
Mari Ann
Already 1 year since I served as NP 23…
I can’t believe that it has been almost a year since I completed my third term as the National President of Theta Phi Alpha Fraternity. Those years taught me so much about myself. I do have to admit that I am enjoying the time that I have to hang out instead of reading soooo many emails and spending some time with my family and friends. I am so proud of Kathy Gaver who is the current National President and doing a great job! I’ll be with my sisters at our Leadership Conference at the end of this month and looking forward to catching up and seeing all the great work that is happening!
Mari Ann’s Out of Focus CD – Now Available on iTunes and CD Baby
Following Hurricane Katrina, I wanted to do something for the people that were important to me. As a result, a CD entitled “Out of Focus” came to be! The CD is now available to you either through iTunes or CD Baby! Hope you enjoy!
Welcome to www.marianncallais.com – New and Improved!
Today is a great day in the world of Mari Ann Callais! Thanks to Pete Lacis, my new website is ready to share with all of you! I have been so excited in that this is only my second shot at having my own website and having one that allows me to share some of my experiences and resources in a way that I hope will help you. I will continue to learn about this site, but hope that it will be beneficial for all of us! Check back for updates on my travels, experiences, and just life in general! Thanks for being a part of my journey – this is going to be fun! Mari Ann
