Working at Accelity Marketing is an eternal learning opportunity. It’s amazing to see how other people work day-to-day and get to learn from their experiences.
I’m from Menomonee Falls and was a punk-rock kid that ventured to the big city to go to shows at the Rave a lot in high school. So I’d say the biggest claim to fame for me growing up was that the drummer from Fall Out Boy, Andy Hurley, lived down the street. I ran into him at Noodles once and got him to sign a napkin. It was as awkward as you'd imagine.
Gilmore Girls. Always and forever. I just recently rewatched all 7 seasons (thanks Netflix!) and could watch it just about anytime, anywhere and not get sick of it.
4 years? I can’t plan my life for next week! But it would be amazing to see Accelity continue to double each year, until we’re so big, we get acquired or maybe open a second location? Dream big. Work hard. Who knows.
That'll do pig. That'll do.
See answer 1. I’m constantly learning the longer I work in this industry, so I’m quite proud of the progress I’ve made the last 6 years in graphic design. For someone that was a Journalism major and Photography and Entrepreneurship minors, Graphic Design was always just a hobby for me. It just proves that you don’t have to stick with what you know to be successful in something.
Like I said, I don’t tend to plan that far ahead. I like to live in the day-to-day, but a major dream of mine since college has been to live abroad, London is the dream. Maybe more realistically now, just sell my house and move somewhere new to experience life outside Wisconsin. I’d love to live in Boston or Seattle!
