Amber's Story
School
My biggest crush was on Duane Fisher (he went to CMW). I also had a crush on a tall, shy guy that was in my class that shall remain nameless :). Ms. Hejl and Mr. Thompson were both teachers that "pushed" me more so than "inspired" me. I would do it all over again: Do somethings differently. Too many funny and happy moments to list but the craziest ones would have to be sneaking up to Philly or when I hung our with Rachel Collier that one night :) :) :).
College
Can I just say that I LOVED my time at College Park??? I grew up SO MUCH while there and made so many friends! I was scared, at first, coming from the small town of HdG to the big, sprawling campus of College Park, but I feel that I have SO many memories that will last me a lifetime! I got my MBA from Loyola in May of '05 but getting your graduate degree is definitely no...Expand for more
t the same as going to undergrad. Oh, the drunken nights. THE MEN!!!!
Workplace
Well, I started out as a wage specialist (similiar to a compensation analyst) with the Department of Defense when I graduated undergrad. I worked in Arlington, VA and was there for 8 months. After that, I went to CitiFinancial (Citigroup) in Baltimore. I worked there for 5 years. I started out as a Marketing Analyst and was a Marketing Manager when I left in March of this year (2006). In March, I started at CareFirst as a Direct Marketing Supervisor and that's where I am today. Overall, it's been a challenging road but I am happy that I've stayed in Marketing (which was my undergradate track of study) and I've learned a lot along the way, especially about good ol' corporate politics. That may explain why I just want to stay home and make babies :).
