Last week I was invited to speak at the University of Northern Iowa again, but this time for the Pi Sigma Epsilon (PSE)student organization. As a former member of PSE I had a blast speaking to my former student org members about personal branding, LinkedIn advice, my marketing career thus far, and an insightful Q&A portion at the end.
This was another great experience for me to get outside my comfort zone and help current college students learn more about the real world transition.
The Sunday Spotlight Series segment this week features Marshal Lambwho is the fourth featured connection of the series. I had the opportunity to talk with Marshal and discuss his background, previous experiences, and advice he has about how to find the right fit for you. Marshal is a great connection of mine from UNI, and is definitely someone you should get to know!
Last week I had the opportunity to speak at my alma mater, the University of Northern Iowa, for the American Advertising Federation (AAF) student organization.

Transitioning to the Monday through Friday 9-5 schedule can be a big adjustment for many recent college graduates. No more naps after class, Netflix during the day, spending hours on social media, or going out during the week.
Looking back, I wish I would’ve made better use of my free time in college, but no reason to let that hold me back now.

Yesterday a former college roommate of mine, Heath Hutcheson, presented Beers to Careers to his high school class at West Branch High School in West Branch, IA.
Heath currently teaches high school Social Studies and thought my content would provide value to his students for one of his lectures.
