As you may know, I am the marketing manager for Reeve Union, the student Union at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. I am also a 2006 alum from the Department of Journalism with an emphasis in Public Relations and Advertising.
Although I've had some pretty amazing jobs in my career, I'd have to say that this position is by far a diamond in the rough - and I love diamonds.
I run a small marketing department that consists of two marketing assistants, four graphic designers and three social media interns. I also work closely with two web developers to ensure our web site is always looking fresh, clean and up-to-date.
Not many people can say that they actually do what they were taught in college on a daily basis. On any given day you'll find me writing ad copy, editing press releases and articles, proofing posters, shooting videos and planning major community events. It's crazy and chaotic but I love it and it's exactly what I went to school for.
My student employees are a huge part of what makes my job so enjoyable. From playing in the local orchestra to winning national running championships, my students are diverse, intelligent and extremely talented.
This morning I met with one of my social media interns as he wanted to interview me for an alumni blog he is helping out with in the Journalism Department. He texted me later asking for some pictures of me that he could post to the blog. Apparently I didn't have a million other things to do because my marketing assistant and I grabbed some random things in my office and had a little fun. I also included photos of some of my students.
Check them out and give me a shout if you ever want to talk about social media, marketing, Reeve Union or the like. Cheers!
