NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Leading ticketing, fundraising, and marketing solution for the arts, PatronManager, a Patron Technology product, announced today that their Managing Director, Michelle Paul, will be appearing as a contestant on Jeopardy!, America's Favorite Quiz Show™, on Thursday, January 30.
An avid fan of the show, Ms. Paul began the audition process in March 2018 by taking an online test through the Jeopardy! website. She was thrilled to be selected for an in-person audition the following September, where the show's producers tested both her general knowledge and also her energy and enthusiasm in front of the camera. A full year went by before Ms. Paul received the momentous call inviting her to be on the show.
"I grew up watching Jeopardy! with my family so the whole experience was a dream come true. The audition was a lot of fun, and I was really blown away when I got 'the call' a few months ago," said Ms. Paul. "I met so many wonderful people in my fellow contestants. It was an honor to be part of this intelligent group collectively having one of the most exciting days of our lives."
Like most contestants, Ms. Paul studied to prepare for her appearance. Knowing she would be representing the dynamic talent at PatronManager, she brushed up on basic facts like U.S. Presidents and geography, but with extra attention to a few other areas. "Working in the arts, I felt a particular responsibility to live up to our clients' and coworkers' expertise! I put some extra effort into studying arts-related topics, like Shakespeare and classical music, with some valuable help from my colleagues."
