The Alumni Spotlight is a series conducted by the Western Marketing Newsletter creators in which we will examine marketing alumni's career paths, successes and challenges, and lesson learned along the way post graduation. We'll explore the ways in which they've leveraged their education and training to make a difference in their industries and communities. We believe that by highlighting the achievements of our alumni, we can demonstrate the value of our marketing program and the impact it has on the professional development of our students. We want every alumni to feel proud to be part of this community! Stay tuned, these series will be presented in the next newsletter.
