PRESIDENT

Hello, my name is Sarah, and I am a Senior Marketing major at the Broad College of Business. I am grateful to have the opportunity to be on the Executive Board for my third year. This year I will serve MSUMA as the President for the 2023-2024 school year.

I have been involved in MSUMA for the past four years. I started off as a member and, after my Freshman year, applied to the E-Board. Since then, I have gone on to be the Director of Corporate Relations and Vice President before becoming President this year. Over the 2023-2024 school year, I look forward to establishing new relationships with members and companies to further support MSUMA's goals and objectives. Additionally, I am eager to implement new ideas to allow our members more opportunities to grow.

If anyone has an interest in marketing, I encourage you to join us at our meetings. MSUMA’s Executive Board is devoted to assisting our members in the development of the tools needed to succeed post-graduation. Through my time with this organization, I have grown both professionally and personally; moreover, I hope MSUMA can provide a similar experience for all members.

I am so excited to connect and work with all our members this year! If you need anything, please feel free to reach out to me. Go Green!

VICE PRESIDENT

Hello, my name is Joey Morrison, and I am a senior studying Computer Science with a minor in Business. I am thrilled to serve as the Vice President of MSUMA for the 2023-2024 academic year.

This will be my second year as a part of MSUMA, as my first year was experienced as a general member. It has provided me with countless opportunities to network with professionals in the industry, develop my leadership skills, and make lasting friendships with like-minded students.

As the Vice President, I am excited to work closely with the President and the rest of the e-board to create engaging and informative events for our members. I am particularly interested in exploring the intersection of marketing and technology and how we can leverage the latest advancements to benefit our members.

I encourage everyone with any interest in marketing to join MSUMA and see what we have to offer. Our organization is dedicated to providing students with the skills, resources, and connections they need to succeed in the ever-changing world of marketing and technology. One of the main reasons I decided to run for Vice President was because I saw the potential that MSUMA had, and I wanted to do everything I could to harness that potential so that everyone reading this can have a leg up for the simple reason that they joined this organization.

I look forward to meeting everyone this year and working together to make MSUMA the best it can be for our members. Go Green!

DIRECTOR OF PHILANTHROPY

Hi! My name is Jonathan Clem and I am a Junior majoring in Public Relations with a minor in Business. I am elated to be serving as Director of Philanthropy for the 2023-2024 academic year!

Last year was my first year at Michigan State as I was a transfer student. I was encouraged to join MSUMA and was blown away by all of the opportunities it gave me both professionally and socially. I was really able to build my personal brand and strengthen my resumé- it really helped me land my first internship, too!

Being able to engage with professionals in the industry gave me a ton of helpful insight into the workforce, while also growing my connections both inside and outside of the organization. If you are interested in getting an exclusive look into highly respected companies, looking for a way to make new friends, need to workshop your professional brand, or need more volunteer opportunities, I couldn’t recommend joining MSUMA more.

I am always available via email to field any questions or comments you may have regarding anything! I couldn’t be more excited to start the year and provide volunteering hours for this organization. Go Green!

This will be my third year as a part of MSUMA, as my first year was experienced as a general member during my Sophomore and Junior years. MSUMA has provided me with many opportunities to network with professionals, develop my leadership skills, and make lasting friendships.

Learning about opportunities from our GMMs and how to network through Networking Mixers has allowed me many opportunities to grow as an individual. I hope to recreate those experiences for everyone else!

Since joining MSUMA last year, I have gained vast knowledge and experience of the marketing and business world. Connecting with professionals and peers is now something I do with confidence and excitement, and I am looking forward to helping others do the same. Volunteering, social events, and professional development trips are all made possible by members, and creating bonds with my peers through these amazing opportunities was what made MSUMA magical for me.

I joined MSUMA as a general member just last year. Getting to network with a slew of people from various companies and forming relationships with other members has been a true highlight of my college experience. Last year, I thoroughly enjoyed the fall and spring semester trips MSUMA took to both Chicago, IL and Columbus, OH. This year, I aim to provide memorable experiences for all of our new and returning members through the semester trips and other social events that we have planned.

For any and all that have an interest in marketing, I highly encourage joining MSUMA. It is through this organization that I have been granted the opportunity to better my understanding of what a career in marketing looks like across many companies, while making friends along the way. I hope every one of our members shares that sentiment and I can’t wait to meet all of you this year!

DIRECTOR OF MARKETING

Hello, my name is Paulina Valdes, and I am a sophomore studying Marketing. I am excited to be serving as Director of Marketing at MSUMA for the 2023-2024 academic year!

I was a part of MSUMA as a general member last year which provided so many different benefits. Not only did I meet so many amazing people but I also got professional development skills through networking, learning about companies, and about my path in my career. I truly don’t think my college experience would have been as enjoyable if it weren’t for MSUMA which is why I want to ensure I do my part as Director of Marketing and extend my impact on others by improving the outreach of MSUMA through our presence online as well as helping our members market themselves to companies for their professional path.

I encourage anyone with an interest in Marketing and even just an interest in individual development such as interpersonal and professional skills to join MSUMA. It truly helped me learn more about all the opportunities available to me and how to navigate the world of marketing whilst getting to make valuable friendships and connections. I’m excited to meet everyone this year and help them grow, reach out anytime and connect with me!
