I started the journey of my life in a mid-sized town in Indiana near Notre Dame. After attending Purdue University for a couple of years I went back and worked in the Food service industry. Working my way up to eventually being 23 and the executive chef of a fine dining restaurant. This is where I first got my understanding in business and how to be successful running an operation. I decided to go back and further my education at Columbia College Chicago. I finished 4 years of school in 2 1/2 years. I received a Bachelors degree in Marketing with a focus on advertising. I graduate with honors and completed my final 4 semesters on the Dean's list. I took an internship with the Broadcast and Advertising Club of Chicago at a small agency. There I learned the intricacies of working with clients and the basis of media. I currently am a marketing coordinator at Alloy Media+Marketing. I strategically fit our assets with client’s objectives and needs. We are the leading teen based marketer in the nation. I also very interested in philanthropic opportunities.
