Nicole Greenwell '09
Recently we heard from Nicole Greenwell '09, who is working for MakerSights out in San Francisco! MakerSights received some great press about its new platform (find the article here). Here's a note from Nicole:
"I got connected to MakerSights through the Georgetown University alumni network out in San Francisco. We have a few Hoyas on our team, including our CEO. I always talked about moving out to California, and eventually was able to make that chatter a reality. I transitioned life from New York City out to San Francisco (far from sunny, but CA nonetheless), eager to find a small company where I could make a major impact. I eventually landed at MakerSights. My team is high energy, quick moving, incredibly thoughtful, ambitious and causing a lot of disruption within the retail industry.
Interestingly, I work day to day with a lot of data and numbers, but I have to give credit to my English teachers from SAS for instilling the drive and ambition to make things happen. Mr. Works, Ms. Horne, and Mr. Pomeroy - each of you left such a lasting impression. I often think back to my English classes, and the way in which you taught me to communicate, as the foundation for my ability to be a leader in my professional career. You each encouraged me to challenge others around me, speak my mind and drive to the top, all with articulation and eloquence that has proven to be essential throughout my career, and a point of distinction among my colleagues. So, thanks!"
