This past spring, I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Wagner College’s Business Program. This innovative program offers an exciting class under Professor Frank DeSimone, which gives students the opportunity to work with businesses to develop marketing and advertising goals. As part of the course, students work to develop these goals into actual products. At the end of the semester, the company has received a product or several products that they can implement immediately and students receive opportunities to build their skills, create a portfolio of work, and network.
The Graduate’s Guide to Networking was chosen to be a part of this incubator project. The students I worked with, Symphonie, Kayla, Samantha, Kathrine and Lauren, designed a new logo, prepared advertising copy and revamped our social media.
I was expecting great things from these Wagner students.
I was blown away by their creativity, technical skills, and problem solving. The commitment and dedication that was shown by the students I was lucky to work with was truly admirable. Ultimately for these students, this was a class project, however, I never felt that I was working with anyone less than a professional.
Thank you so much Symphonie, Kayla, Samantha, Kathrine and Lauren. With your work ethic, positivity and creativity, I know you will accomplish all that you pursue.
