Purpose

Current State

public class Person {

private int id;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private String email;
private String password;
//List of Events List<Event> @ManyToMany
//Favorite category EventCategory @OneToMany

//Methods
//-getters and setters
//-get back Favorite Events(returns all events that have to do with favorite category

}

Future Improvements

The Person class might also have the following references:

PersonProfile - a class to gather up all of the profile information about the user List eventsAttending - to store events the user wants to attend List eventsOwned - a different list, to store the events the user has created Person would have a many-to-many relationship with Event via List eventsAttending. It would have a one-to-many relationship with Event via List eventsOwned.
