Employee Resource Group Mentorship and Capstone Program - July 2017 to March 2021
Each year, Comcast ERG groups come together to offer a mentorship program for high performances in the organization. Additionally, the mentees can apply to participate in the Capstone Program, where an executive leader presents a real-time business problem and participants are organized in small groups to develop and present a business case. I participated in the Capstone Program in 2018 and found the experience so rewarding, I oversaw the Capstone Program as a board member from 2019 to 2021. 

College Education

Picture

​I graduated Cum Laude in May 2014, with a Bachelor of Science from Ithaca College's Roy H. Park School of Communications in Ithaca, New York.
  • Major: Integrated Marketing Communications - Ithaca's Integrated Marketing Communications major offers a holistic marketing experience, combining strategic marketing communication and design coursework from the Park School of Communication with business concepts and analysis coursework from the Ithaca College School of Business. 
  • Minors: Communication Management and Design, Sports Studies, and Legal Studies - with multifaceted interests, I selected three minors to learn about a vast range of subjects. With my Communication Management and Design coursework, I focused on strategic communication management and design. As an avid sports fan, I gained a deeper understanding about the history of sport and its global impact through my sports studies minor. I thoroughly enjoyed learning the intricacies of United States law and its impact on marketing and everyday life in my legal studies coursework.
  • Sports/Organizations: Women's Varsity Track and Field Team as a Heptathlete and Pentathlete (August 2010 to January 2013), Founder of Ithaca College Femfessionals ((January 2013 to January 2014), Event Planner for IC Spirit Week (December 2012 to October 2013), Public Relations Consultant, Event Chair, and Project Manager for Students Consulting for NonProfits (January 2012 to December 2013).
