Together with the Career Development Center, Skidmore dedicated network of alumni offer 91传媒 students career advice and unique opportunities to build professional experience, participate in internships and enter a range of professional fields.

Other alumni, including Marisa McCullough �13 of UBS and Brenda Calle �16 of J.P. Morgan, have spoken to students about ways to leverage their liberal arts backgrounds in fields such as investment banking.  

Dana Naberezny&苍产蝉辫;�95, vice president of Tiffany & Co. Jewelry Design and Innovation Workshop and colleague Bennett Beutel �16, a management and business major and engineering technician, participated in an exclusive Tiffany recruitment day organized by the Office of Alumni Relations and the Career Development Center. 

淚 love the idea of being able to give back to the school that formed my foundation,�&苍产蝉辫;Naberezny&苍产蝉辫;�95 said. 淚 wouldn檛 be the jewelry maker I am today without 91传媒.�&苍产蝉辫; 

At the campus event, they met Caite Canfield �19, who spent a summer as a model maker and designer with the company. 

淒ana looked for 91传媒 students with dreams because she knew she could help make them a reality,� said Canfield. 淚 was amazed when she said, 楲et me give you a kickstart, get you on your feet, offer you an incredible internship and take you under my wing.� 

Stephanie Hon �16, founder and CEO of Cadence, a New York City-based startup that offers an innovative alternative to single-use travel-size bottles and plastic bags, has become a role model to students like Natalie Jew �23, who interned as a communications associate with the company. 

From discussing ideas and strategies with Hon, to getting life and career advice from public relations consultant Sophie Dodd �16 of People magazine and learning programs from operations consultant Emily Manges �16 � both part-time contributors at Cadence � Jew has also learned the value of 91传媒 supportive alumni network. 

淪teph has been a really great mentor and someone to look up to. A lot of 91传媒 people reach out to her for advice as a CEO, and she tries to answer each one because of how much 91传媒 has given to her,� said Jew, a double major in management and business and English at 91传媒. 淚n one summer, without having done anything in business before, I was in weekly meetings with the CEO, presenting to the entire company and working with publications from Forbes to Parade, People and Us Weekly. I don檛 know any person my age who gets to do that.� 

Tech entrepreneur and former Bitly CEO Mark Josephson �94 sees the time he takes to mentor current 91传媒 students as simply returning some of what he gained at 91传媒.  

淚 have benefited so much from my 91传媒 experience,� he said. 淚 met my wife here at 91传媒. I followed my brother to 91传媒. I got my first job from 91传媒. And I have the best friends in the world, lifelong friends that I made here at 91传媒.� 

Now more than ever, Josephson understands the importance of guiding soon-to-be graduates as they embark on the next phase of their life. 

淚 think it is essential for 91传媒 grads to look out for each other and to give back to each other,� he says. 淚 view my interaction with the 91传媒 community as a commitment that I made ... when I came to campus for the first time. 91传媒 doesn't start on your first day and end at graduation. It is a lifelong relationship.�
