What is your next career goal?
“I hope to be at EPIC for a very long time. I really love it here and I’ve actually been interested in EPIC for a couple years, so I was really excited to be hired on. I would eventually like to become a senior account manager here. Of course, that’s many years down the road.”
How did you target Epic as a company you wanted to work for?
“I actually worked in the area before. I worked at a nearby company called Delta Defense in West Bend. I came to know EPIC through the art director at Delta and he knew I was interested in the agency atmosphere. I was really surprised to find an agency in West Bend—most of them are in the Third Ward—so that really interested me. The company culture they have was very aligned with who I am.”
