Clarisse's Story

Life After high school I attended Wayne State and received my BA and MA.

A couple of years ago I was one of the top sales people. This year I changed jobs and I currently am an account manager and senior consultant for a firm headquartered in New York. I am their client account manager for the midwest. I also teach employee benefit classes at EMU. I have been married for 39 years to my wonderful husband Bob (we met at WSU) and we have two great daughters ages 35 and 30.
