Who would have thought? Just yesterday (4 years ago) I was balling like a baby watching my parents drive out of Wofford's campus leaving me in a gorgeously foreign "new home" with suitcases at my feet and here I am graduating and leaving four absolutely incredible years of memories behind. Everyone says it flies and they're all wrong...it goes quicker than that. Having been home from London only four weeks or so by now I have managed to not only land a job but find an apartment.
I wanted so badly to be in the Charleston area so I applied to 68 companies and did everything in my power but for marketing/communications positions the opportunity just isn't there. So I hit the Charlotte area, had 5 interviews in a week, had options, and took what I knew would make me happiest. You're looking at the new program coordinator for a marketing firm downtown Charlotte and I couldn't be happier.
It's incredible how far I've come and I've cried one to many tears of joy with my parents by my side and I couldn't have done it without them much less be who I am today. So, here's to the next chapter!
p.s. I hope to be pushing 90 (literally) and acting 30 one day. Meet my father's parents...also known as my second set of parents = 2 incredible people.
And what would college have been without Barb? :)
