Grad Searching Employment
Well for me... my vision growing up has never changed. I have always wanted to work in athletics whether it was for a college or professional team. Most people go through phases in life where they change their appearances. Not me. I dress the same as I did when I was five years old. Weather permitting I wear shorts with a lanyard hanging out of my left pocket, flip flops, and a sports jersey or t-shirt.
My nickname growing up was Wisco because all I wore was Badger stuff since my entire family attended UW-Madison. I broke the tradition by attending Marquette. During those 2 hours in December when MU battles UW-- "I am not part of the Remington family" said my Grandma. Here is a list of what I am up against in this family rivalry.
UW-Madison Almuns
- My grandparents
- My dad
- My sister
- 4 uncles
- 1 aunt
- 8 cousins
- (3 cousins: prospective students)
Marquette Alums
- ME
As you can see, I stand out. My passion has always been sports and God has given me the gifts of being able to write properly and be creative. I would love to apply my talents to work for an athletic department. I have example of my work posted on my digital portfolio at www.GoldenEaglesFan.weebly.com Where you can also find my resume posted.
I work well both individually and in team settings. I can help in a front office answersing calls, dealing with fans, alumns and customers. I can promote and market a team by using social media or creating print ads. As a graduate in communications I have strong interpersonal skills so I can create events and meet and greet donors. Anything dealing with communications and or public relations -- I would be a great asset!
So please if you want a young, creative and passionate individual please consider me.

Traveling to Our Nation's Capitol
With another win last night, the Men’s Basketball is currently tied with Pitt at #2 in the BIG EAST. We are only a ½ game behind the first place team UConn and have a tough challenge this weekend at Georgetown.
I am originally from Arlington, VA which is located across the Potomac River from Washington, DC. As a result, I always travel to D.C when my school competes against the Hoyas.
My organization is planning for a huge turnout of support from current students and alumni. They are anticipating this support because my school has a program entitled Les Aspin Center which is a program to prepare current students to serve the public effectively and ethically and to provide opportunities to enhance public policy awareness through educational programs. In addition, there is large population of alum’s that live in the DC area. This is why my school reserved Clyde’s, a very popular restaurant bar, adjacent to the Verizon Center.
The Alumni Association and the Blue and Gold Fund deserve credit for planning and creating this event. The event will begin at noon, Feb. 21. Because this is a private event organized by my school, no Hoya fans are welcome!
Also, Friday night my friends and I are planning to go out in Georgetown supporting my school’s colors (blue and gold). Anyone is welcome to join us as we hop around on M street!
We are... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _!
