In a nutshell, what do you do?
I am currently a student at MSU pursuing my Master’s in Marketing Research while also working as an assistant store manager for White House Black Market.
Why do you love what you do?
I love what I do as it allows me to work on the marketing and sales side of the business while also being able to see some of the behind the scenes of the company. I never saw myself working in sales before, let alone as the individual in charge of all our sales staff and executions, however, I am now loving being able to both interact with people while meeting goals and sitting behind a screen at times. In regard to my master’s program, I always enjoyed doing case studies and research projects for my majors in undergrad, this program allows me to continue to do this side of class work, but more specifically in the marketing field.
How did Albion help you get there?
Albion helped me get here by offering support, a tight knit community, and opportunities to be myself. I became more outgoing throughout my time at Albion and was able to develop the professional and educational skills I now use throughout my day-to-day tasks.
For me, Albion…
…helped me find my place and helped build my future goals. While on campus, Albion was truly a home and happy place for me. I am thankful for my professors, friends, and mentors. Now Albion holds a special place in my memories.
