Student Spotlight
"I interviewed Ms. Sullivan and she explained her career path and the experiences that led her to marketing as a career and what she has learned as the Markeing Director. I really felt like I needed a little more clarity into what marketing as a career would look like outside of the classroom. Ms. Sullivan taught me that as well as how versatile and unpredictable marketing really is, it often changes and is always interesting. Thanks to my School Counselor Ms. Cuttino and our Career Specialist Ms. Campbell, I was given the opportunity to learn more about the career path I am interested in pursuing. I suggest that students talk to professionals who are in their desired career field or major because it will give them insight into what it’s like when you actually get into that career of choice. Overall, I’m grateful for the opportunity that I was given to learn more about my chosen career path".
