Goodbye Peoria, Hello Chicago

It's official - I now know what my future holds after Bradley!

On Tuesday I accepted a position with Robert Bosch Tool Corporation to work with digital media.  This is a great first job and will allow me to develop my online marketing skills.  I am joining a large and successful global organization and hope to continue there for many years to come.

My current internship at the company's offices in Peoria has helped me develop relationships in the organization and skills that will help me be successful in this position.  I have managed the social presence of three brands at my current job, but I have not been able to focus on that due to numerous other projects that I need to complete.  My new job will allow me to spend my time specializing in developing online advertising campaigns to drive traffic and ultimately sales.  I met with three members of the marketing team on Thursday and am excited to be working with a great group.

It will definitely be a life change because I have lived in the Peoria area my entire life.  I am not familiar with Chicago or the suburbs so it will take some getting used to, but I am ready for this adventure.  I am going to have a large check list to complete, and I am guessing that I will overlook many small details.

The college chapter is coming to a close, and with it my life as a student.  Now the next section of my book begins and I already like how it is starting.
