A New Leaf

Exciting things are happening... I've graduated graduate school,  I'm opening myself up to job opportunities across the country and I'm about to embark on an international journey!

First off I’m done with my MBA. Graduate school really flew by and I’m hoping that the connections I made and knowledge I acquired will help me in the future. I’ve come a long way since my first day of class in the summer of 2010. I was a bit overwhelmed with all of the business lingo after living and working as a glorified ski bum for so long! (Going from measuring the return student ratio to return on investment wasn’t so hard!) I can now interpret the business lingo and have realized how much my experiences in Breckenridge have help develop me both personally and professionally.

With nothing holding me back, I’m currently applying to marketing and PR positions all over the country. This is both exciting and scary! While I’d love to stay within the snowsports or outdoor industries, I’m also open to other opportunities that will help me grow. I’ve developed a keen interested in Internet marketing so thought… why not start my own blog?

To celebrate my graduation (and scratch my international travel itch before I jump head first to a new position... hopefully soon) I am traveling to Peru. While Peru might not have been a big spot on my radar a year ago, a brave Breckenridge friend who is trekking the entire length of South America, and a new adventurous friend from graduate school enticed me.  I will be traveling into the Amazon for about a week with my friend Jolene and then we will be meeting up with Shelley Brooke and Las Tres Chicas Locas to hike to Machu Picchu.

I look forward to sharing and chronicling both my professional and personal experiences!  Here I hope to learn more about blogging and the blogging community!
