About Me

Recent college graduate (May 2009) from The College of New Jersey with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and a concentration in Marketing.

Travel enthusiast with a penchant for learning new things about the world, myself and others - all of which can be attained hand in hand if you're open to it. I regularly blog about my past, current, and I can't-wait-to-have future travels at [lookoutworld.wordpress.com] - a side project I started as a way to chronicle my adventures for a cross-country trip I was gearing up for. It has since become a passion of mine that I genuinely look forward to writing in.

I am currently working and traveling as a Selection Tour Public Relations Coordinator for SportsLink, a sports marketing/management company that owns and operates the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. My team and I travel extensively throughout the Midwest to hold assemblies, pep rallies and press conferences in coordination with local Army representatives to announce the All-Americans that have been selected to play or perform at this year's game. The Bowl is now celebrating its' tenth anniversary, to be held in San Antonio, TX at the Alamodome on January 9, 2010 aired LIVE on NBC.
