Summer 2009
I do not think I've had a better 10 days in my life. Five cities, forty 20-somethings, seven Israeli soldiers, a lot of shawarma, and a whole lot more of Jewish history to take it. From the Western Walls of Jerusalem to the Dead Sea, the beaches at Tel-Aviv, and spending a night with Bedouins is something I hope I can do again in my life. I still keep in touch with the Israeli soldiers and those that experienced this with me.

BSBA Marketing - College of Business Administration, Class of 2009
They always say college is the best four years of your life and they were not lying. I experienced a unique and character built city, met the most amazing friends, created close relationships with my professors, and even started a fraternity chapter. I was fortunate enough to cap it off with a second place finish for Homecoming King my senior year. I believe I grew more as an adult, friend, and professional in Oakland and I would not trade those four years in for anything. HAIL TO PITT!

My first experience with a BIG company was one to remember. I packed up my bags and spent 3 months in New York City. The fast pace lifestyle is something I caught onto very quickly. I found an apartment with a few fraternity brothers and worked myself tirelessly between interning at the record label and serving as a caterer.
The President of Universal Republic Records is one of the most impressive professionals I have ever met. He kept the label afloat while the industry was suffering and took time out of his schedule each week to teach us about working in music. What an experience!

Summer 2003

When you are a wee little kid, you either love or hate camp. I remember begging my parents to go to overnight camp when I was as young as 11. They finally gave me the chance the next summer and I did not stop of the next nine. It is really something special when you can get away for four or eight weeks and do just about anything and everything you love.
I met amazing campers and counselors from all over the world, explored the wilderness by canoe, hiking, or climbing; sometimes 6 days at a time, learned how to barefoot waterski, and made great friends for life. Plus, it doesn't get much more impressive then a front row seat for the "Northern Lights." I went 7 years as a camper and 2 as a counselor. Spending all those days in the Northern Woods is something that will always stay close to me.

This is where Mom and Dad raised me with my younger brother Brent. I was always an active kid involved in baseball, soccer, snowboarding and more. I still remember the days when all the neighborhood kids would get together to play roller hockey in the street. I attended Deerfield High School where I played for the school’s varsity soccer team, mentored younger students, participated in DECA, and more. My days in the north suburbs gave me the confidence and drive to be the person I am.
