Okay, let’s calculate. Emily has a mix of skills that are valuable in event planning, but the rates vary widely depending on the industry and location. Event planners in the US, especially in cities like Baltimore, can charge between $30-$75 per hour. Considering her leadership and hospitality skills, she might be able to charge a bit higher. However, without specific experience in high-end event planning or a strong portfolio, I'm estimating a lower rate. Maybe around $45 per hour, which is on the higher end for a generalist event planner.
