I currently work in the supply chain field as a Corporate buyer (Procurement Agent). I have worked in both defense and commercial business units to ensure superior production is completed with quality parts on time. A lot of my job is building trusting relationships with suppliers and ensuring contractual obligations are met.
 

I think of my Marketing and Business professors often as I recall theories and strategies for business operations.

You have a long road ahead of you to build your career. I have worked over 20 years of different jobs and never thought that I would have a career that fit my professional goals. Shortly after I finished college, I chose to have a family first instead of pursuing a full-time professional career. After 20 years of being out of college, I now have a fulfilling career and see continued growth in my professional life. Don't ever give up on what you actually WANT to do.

I have 6 children and am a fulltime graduate student at Michigan State University pursuing a Masters in Strategic Communications. I don't have much free time, but when I do, you can find me either laying on a beach, hiking in the mountains or going for ride in my husband's corvette.
