Miles Putnam

I serve on the investment committee for a local money manager. Our firm invests about $300 million for about 200 clients. Half our client base comes from Michigan, with the other half peppered across the country. Our main focus is domestic growth equities. We also have a growing business in municipal bonds. I mainly follow companies in the retail and technology sectors.
 
There's more money in Southeast Michigan than people often assume. The auto industry made a lot of people rich over the years, and a good amount of that money is still here. The investment finance industry isn't nearly as developed here as, say, Chicago, but I'd bet that it's on the way up.

I work alongside the interactive marketing specialist to create effective and unique online marketing strategies. Managing and updating our various clients’ social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, with content is a daily task. Additionally, I generate keyword driven content, including blogs, and optimize them throughout client websites. I don't look at it as work because of how much fun and enjoyment I get out of it. Core3 is a great company to work for - everyone is hard working and dedicated, but most of all we have fun and love what we do.

Radio Disney is the local marketing arm of The Walt Disney Company. By leveraging powerhouse Disney assets across multiple platforms, including the Disney Channel, Disney Pictures, Disney Junior and more, Radio Disney creates positive on-site experiences for Metro Detroit Families aligned with internationally recognized and beloved content!
 
Not many people can truly say that they love their job, so I know that I am extremely fortunate that I do. In my position, I am in charge of all marketing, events and promotions in the Detroit market. I began working at The Walt Disney Company through an internship at Walt Disney World immediately after graduating college. I returned home to Detroit and began working part-time in the Promotion Department at Radio Disney while holding other various marketing positions in the area. When the opportunity to move into my current position presented itself, everything fell into place. I am lucky enough to work with amazing people and for a brand that I am passionate about. The best part of my job is the ability to bring the magic of Disney to our local Families – the pure joy and excitement that they experience makes all of the hard work worth it!

David W. Swatosh

Prior to obtaining the job at Rehmann, I worked for a small CPA firm that performed basic accounting, consulting and tax functions.  My desires to focus solely on tax lead me to Rehmann where I work in the tax consulting group. The majority of my time is spent assisting companies of all sizes and industries calculate and document the Research and Development Tax Credit incentive.  Other specialties that I am involved with are Energy tax incentives and general Federal tax compliance for individuals and businesses.  I work directly with Owners, CFO's, Controllers, Tax Directors and Employees to learn about their business and understand the new and improved products that are currently under development.  
 
I came to Rehmann for many reasons including, better opportunities to flourish as a CPA, a great work-life balance so I can spend time with my wife and four kids, but most of all Rehmann is a Michigan company.  It was founded in Saginaw, MI in 1941 and has grown all throughout Michigan the "right way," meaning, bigger is not always better.  Additionally, as I am finding out the people who work for Rehmann are great all the way from the professional support staff to the Principals.   
 
I chose to focus on taxation because I feel that my consulting can add value to Rehmann's clients by managing their tax attributes and that gives me the satisfaction that I helped the client instead of merely inputting numbers into a form or producing a financial statement.  Being an advisor to clients and focusing on client relationships is key to the success of any business.

Allyson McLean

I was lucky enough to move back to Michigan in 2011 as part of the Detroit Revitalization Fellows Program, a network of professionals working to build capacity, foster collaboration, and accelerate progress across organizations engaged in revitalizing Detroit. As part of this program, I am employed by the Community Investment Support Fund (CISF), a non-profit subsidiary of Larson Realty Group. CISF is an emerging Community Development Financial Institution, providing below-market-rate loans as well as technical assistance to non-profit organizations that serve low-income communities.

My job is incredibly rewarding, allowing me to work with institutions that enhance the livability of our community and develop creative capital structures that ensures their sustainability. A major component of my position involves actively fundraising to capitalize the fund that allows CISF to make these investments into community projects. In my day to day work, I also draw from skills developed during my two years with a management consulting firm in Washington, DC, which have become useful in finding solutions for CISF's clients and to develop our organizational capacity.

I spent two years working in economic development in Pittsburgh, a city often described as being a model for Detroit, but always intended to bring lessons learned there back to Michigan as I build my career. I couldn't ask to be in Detroit at a better time or to be exposed to a more inspiring network of individuals working to make a difference in our community.

Marisa Bell

I first became interested in becoming a QA analyst while in college. I had a few courses in Software Testing and one of my teachers was also QA Analyst. I really enjoyed the meticulous detail that went into the job and I really enjoyed all the documentation that went along with it. I have been doing QA for 5+ years now and it is still a very satisfying career. As a Quality Assurance analyst, you are responsible for making sure that all services and products are of quality and meet the client needs.  I was born and raised here in the Detroit Metro area and while I did move away for a while to live in Atlanta, GA. I returned not long ago to finally settle down here. That was always the plan and always my goal. I know there is a lot of skepticism about finding work here in the metro area, but I did not have that problem and I found a lot of work when I returned. I actually found my current job by applying on craigslist.org. I’m working as a Quality Assurance analyst at MRM Worldwide. I have been working here for about 5 months. I really enjoy working here not only because of the location which is in the beautiful city of Birmingham, MI right in the downtown area. But also because of our products. It is very exciting to be able to see and work with some of the most cutting edge technology that we use every day. It’s very enjoyable and I never get bored!

Diana Shkreli

I am a junior attorney in a busy immigration law firm. I decided that I would be well situated to the field of immigration law because of my background and the opportunity working in this position would allow me to connect with my community here in Metro Detroit. I recently moved back into the area after living in the Lansing area for a few years and was thrilled to find something close to Detroit and the area I grew up around. I took a step outside the box and decided to draft a cover letter that really connected with why I wanted to be an Immigration Attorney and how I thought I would be well suited for the area. I had little experience in the Immigration Law Field and knew it would be a long shot but I sent my resume around to what seemed like every Immigration Attorney and Law Firm in the Detroit area. Instantly responses of support, and regret that there were no opportunities flowed in, as well as some requests for more information and eventually interviews. I was willing to start at the bottom and work my way up, having little experience and just starting out in the legal profession I was ready to do what I had to do, especially in this economy. I am currently working at a busy and knowledgeable Immigration Law Firm in Farmington Hills, Michigan. We serve clients in a variety of Immigration law related issues. From family based to corporate immigration law and we can provide our services worldwide, which was very appealing to me.

The Senior Attorneys at my firm have more than 20 years experience and have been great in offering me comprehensive training and opportunity for professional growth. I am very happy with my decision to remain in Metro Detroit, and look forward to the opportunity to grow as a young professional with this great state and metropolitan area.

I was very excited to have the opportunity to interview with CIBER. I found the position posted on LinkedIn and had my fingers crossed since my recruiting background was not in IT. I was very blessed to have received an offer and excited to start a new recruiting adventure! As a recruiter with CIBER I work on a team with twenty plus recruiters across the US. I am responsible for recruiting top notch IT professionals across a wide range of areas in the Technology industry. My job involves a lot more than waiting for someone to apply to a job posting. If I want to be successful, I need to go out and find the talent CIBER is looking for. I love what I do; it is a challenge, it is competitive and I get to meet new people every day. It is a great feeling when I match a candidate to their career!

I chose to work for CIBER because the company is growing, the office environment is cool, it is global, and it is full of innovative, talented, hard working fun people. At CIBER initiative, creativity and hard work will take an employee as far as we want to go! The company encourages new ideas, new approaches, and new abilities and believes an entrepreneurial atmosphere is a part of what makes a company a highly motivating place to work. It is never boring here!  Luckily, CIBER has an office in Southfield; I am a huge advocate of rebuilding Detroit and have no desire to leave Michigan anytime soon. There is so much going on in the city of Detroit right now and Michigan is an absolutely beautiful state.

As a Health and Benefits Consultant the main function of my job is to analyze and suggest insurance options and alternatives to our clients based on their specific wants and needs. Although Aon is a global corporation, the Southfield Health and Benefits office consists of only eight individuals. Working with such a small group has given me the opportunity to get one-on-one attention from experts in the field and expand my knowledge of the industry immensely. My favorite part about working as a consultant is the constant interaction I have with clients and the ability to assist them in the often confusing and ever-changing world of employee benefits.

It’s not about who you know; it’s about who knows you! I landed the job through a Twitter connection. One of my followers (we’ve never actually met!) knows a recruiter at Doner. After I graduated from MSU, he asked me if I was looking for a job and if I’d be interested in the Detroit area. I was definitely interested and landed the interview and the job shortly after! I mainly work on logo design, rebranding, and print collateral for clients like ADT, Things Remembered, The UPS Store, and the Detroit Historical Society. I moved to Royal Oak because it’s the center of a lot of activity in the area and it’s not too far from work.

Laura Evangelista

As the talent acquisition coordinator at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, my role is constantly evolving. I am a recruiter, an event planner, an interview coordinator and a system administrator. Having graduated with a degree in journalism and a focus on visual communication, I'm very new to talent acquisition. I started as an intern after my graduation from MSU, and the field ended up clicking for me. BCBSM has really stepped up its internship program to include volunteer opportunities with Summer in the City (http://www.summerinthecity.com/) and a social program hosted by After 5 Detroit (http://after5detroit.com/a5/). BCBSM's commitment to not only the social mission of creating a healthier Michigan, but to the development of Detroit as a home for the company registered as something I want to be a part of.

How I landed my job: I met the internship coordinator at an MSU Career Fair and was offered a summer internship after my May 2011 graduation. After my internship I applied to an open position in my department, interviewed, and got the job. My advice: go to career fairs! There is no shame in a post-graduation internship. It's like dating before getting married - ease into the commitment!

I'm really excited to see where this company will take me and how far I can go.

To find myself building a career in the same fashion is very exciting for me. Although I didn’t land this position until recently, I started looking for a position with Chrysler during my final year in college. Along the way I was able to gain solid experience in digital marketing and social media. I see a strong future in social media marketing and when a position opened up within Chrysler I felt it was a natural fit.

Great things are happening in Lyon Township and I love being a part of such dynamic environment.  I was hired this past summer by the Lyon Downtown Development Authority (DDA) to jump start its economic development efforts, and to reduce costs associated with the day-to-day administration and management of DDA business, projects and programs.

Recently, I presented Township elected and appointed officials with a comprehensive pre-planning assessment tool designed to gauge their perceptions and understanding of economic development activities and conditions in the community. With this tool I will analyze the Township's strengths and weaknesses, and overall preparedness to retain existing businesses, attract new businesses and residents, and grow small businesses within the Township and in New Hudson, the Township's downtown business district.

Her energy and entrepreneurial attitude is contagious.  My official position is Director of Social Media; which is digital marketing (promoting online sales, e-marketing through facebook, twitter, linked in and other social media tools).  Also, I launched Denise's personal blog www.deniseilitch.com. In addition to Social Media I assist in creative development of the Denise Ilitch Designs brand.  Coming from the New York fashion industry it's exhilarating to be at the forefront of a growing fashion brand based in Detroit!  

As we were growing Denise Ilitch Designs online presence we realized what an opportunity there was in the social media sector.  Thus, Denise & I decided to launch a social media consulting agency where we help other companies synergize their traditional marketing with social media marketing and establish specific social media strategies to their industry.

Besides the great office space, Skidmore is different from other places I've worked because I can actually collaborate with the designers and illustrators that will be working on the projects.

I am a workers' compensation and medical malpractice defense lawyer.  I found my job by being scouted by an attorney based upon my professional appearance and positive reputation despite limited experience.  I believe it is important to always dress like the profession you desire and have an optimistic outlook which leads to open doors.   I truly enjoy the law and incorporating my business degree by representing corporations and non-profit entities.  I see the great growth that has taken place in Detroit in my lifetime and think we are riding the wave of a great resurgence in our region.  I also relish opportunities to give back to the community by participating on committees and boards for some of the transformative projects currently underway and I encourage other young professionals to do the same.  In doing so, we continue to create a climate that is rich in business growth and culture that will attract and retain more  talent to Detroit and its surrounding areas.  The other benefit to giving back is it allows you to connect to the most dynamic business leaders in our area which leads to further job opportunity and individual growth.

Ashleigh Chatel

While attending Wayne State University and working as an intern at Berg Muirhead (Detroit-based PR agency) I quickly learned I wanted my public relations career to be with an agency. I thoroughly enjoy the fast-paced culture and opportunities to grow, and utilize a variety of skills while working with a diverse set of clients.

I found out about my current job through a few different resources; a friend and former colleague emailed me the job listing and it was posted on the Public Relations Society of America Detroit chapter's website. I began working at Lambert, Edwards and Associates in February 2011. As an associate at LE&A, I support the firm's health care practice and work on the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and DTE accounts. LE&A is Michigan's only state-wide firm with offices in Grand Rapids, Troy and Lansing. I enjoy being able to work with large companies that are Michigan-based and help tell their stories. The best part about working at LE&A is the people; the agency has a hard-working, team-oriented and fun culture with smart and passionate professionals.

When I moved to the Detroit area about four and a half years ago, I came here with the mentality of just needing to complete my bachelor's degree and then leave to go back home to Northern Virgina and work in D.C. or another big city. But, I unexpectedly fell in love with Detroit and the people. I quickly learned that while there's a lot of competition in the job market, it's a small town and you need to just be well-prepared and open minded. Detroit can offer so many great opportunities that you wouldn't get the chance to have in other big cities.

Neda Mirafzali

I was born and raised in southeastern Michigan, so staying in Michigan as a professional seemed only natural.  I’ve seen Michigan go from its glory days to times when “struggling” was the nice way to describe what we were going through.  I believe in Michigan and I believe in Metro-Detroit.  
 
I found my job through networking.  I worked for The Health Law Partners, PC as a summer associate during the Summer 2009 and, at the end of the summer, I was extended an offer as a full-time attorney for after I graduated and took the bar exam.  
 
Being in healthcare law right now couldn’t be a better fit for me.  At the beginning of my career, the world of healthcare law is just beginning to bloom and I get to be at the forefront of all of it, watching it develop and unfold into something new every day.

Madelyn Coleman-Manley

My position is geared at delivering best practices and maintaining a high-standard level of client services. I was brought in to help customize and implement complex CRM applications to manage our clients’ data. I essentially provide a strategic marketing input and provide analysis of client interaction to help my firm better assess and act on the needs and future needs of our clients.  This is the perfect position for me. I have an affinity for Marketing and IS both. This position is my happy medium. I can exercise my knowledge of information systems, while still keeping my career marketing based.

The position was forwarded to me by my mother. I was not actively searching for employment. I was however exploring opportunities that were more career-focused. I choose Rehmann, because I felt that it was the place for me to be. The firm has locations through-out the state of Michigan, Ohio and Florida. This gives me flexibility in my day-to-day location. Though I am based out of our Troy office, my company has an awesome policy on work-life balance, so I have the option to work from our Farmington Hills office. I stay near my hometown of Detroit to be close to my family and friends.

Casey Frushour

I knew a career in the graphic design field was in my future from a very young age. With a drawing pad always nearby, I would sketch anything that grabbed my eye. Later, during high school, I channeled this love for art into a small business designing t-shirts for student groups and athletic teams. This led me to attend the University of Michigan School of Art & Design to get a better understanding of graphic design theory and how I could use it to help people communicate their ideas. During school, I started my own freelance graphic design shop and began to take on several side jobs (whenever pesky homework didn’t get in the way) including a logo design for an airline and a website for a local life science company. Being a freelance graphic designer has allowed me to learn about so many interesting industries and meet some very inspiring entrepreneurs. It has also helped me to improve my graphic and web design skill sets at a much faster pace than when I was just working with one client.

Citizens Insurance is owned by Hanover Insurance, which was just voted one of the best companies to work for by the Boston Globe. I am one of 7 underwriters on my team. We primarily take calls from our partners agents, the ones who write the most and best business. We have to approve, deny, or "tweek" risks based on various eligibility factors. Although that is the main part of my job, on an average day I wear many hats. My department is set up like a call center, and I handle escalated issues from both agents and insureds. These issues can be anywhere from underwriting, billing, processing, or customer service. I am given a lot of autonomy in decision making, and I take ownership in what my team does. Citizens is a great company, with a great training program, and lots of opportunity for growth and development. We just hired 4 new team members, and are always looking for talent.

Barry Malone

I love being an attorney because I have the chance to help people and communities. My main areas of practice are land use, municipal, and real estate with an emphasis on leasing and community associations. The southeast Michigan region and particularly Detroit are full of opportunity for economic development and innovative land use planning. Detroit is wide open for reinvention. It is a blank slate just waiting to be reshaped by creative, passionate people.

I have always been interested in community development and local government. As a law student, I was pulled toward municipal law because it is primarily where land use planning decisions are made. I was fortunate to find very talented and experienced mentors that helped me focus my job search and helped open doors for me in the local legal community. My firm is the perfect fit for my practice area interests.

I started as a Social Media Intern and soon thereafter became a Social Media Analyst/Content Manager. This means I manage the social media and web content across various North American Bancard (NAB) websites, from the usual suspects of Facebook and Twitter to the company's blog. On a daily basis I create content to post and monitor what people are saying about our brand. The best part of my position is that it is a fun and challenging mix of content management, marketing and PR, and customer service (I get to do a little of everything and I get to work with various departments and outside vendors).  Just as the social media space is advancing and ever-changing, NAB has been growing and moving fast, especially in regards to the mobile payments movement. So despite my title, I'm not limited to just social media - I've been involved in the launch of Pay Anywhere, a mobile payments solution (PayAnywhere.com). It's been really exciting to be a part of new product, from initial market research production to the assisting in the coordination of PR efforts. My job and NAB definitely keeps me on my toes!

I currently work as an HR Administrator specializing in Staffing for Netarx, LLC. In March of 2010, I started with the company as an HR intern and eventually  gained a full time position with the company after just a few months. As a company, Netarx is driven to continuously expand its growth and improve itself by setting new challenging goals every  quarter. Due to this corporate vision, employment opportunities have flourished in my tenure with the firm. Entry level positions in particular have been created that have given new hope for recent college graduates in the state. There is immense growth opportunities for every employee in the company; internship and apprenticeship programs have been created to promote from within.
 
This company has proven that the portrayal of Michigan as a dismal economic state is merely a perspective.  For young professionals that are seeking full-time opportunities with an excellent firm, Netarx has proven to me that authentic careers do exist and to leave Michigan to find them is a choice rather than a necessity. The best part of my job is that I am helping to recruit talented individuals in Michigan that will give the company strength from within and in addition keeping the talent pool alive in the state.

Justin Jacobs

After moving home to Detroit after college for a job opportunity in 2007, I realized that the majority of the recent college graduates always had the same complaint, that there was nothing to do! They became so complaint with their routines of work, eat, sleep, that they didn't realize how easy it is to improve the quality of their lives through basic interactions such as social leagues and events. In order to make metro Detroit a more dynamic place where young professionals want to move, there needed to be more opportunities for people to be engaged in their communities, socially, actively and professionally. As someone that has a hard time sitting in one place, I decided to do something about it! I organized a men's basketball league in February 2010, and through word of mouth, Facebook and other social media outlets we have grown to over 2,500 participants in our kickball, volleyball, dodgeball, bowling, softball leagues, pilates/TRX/barre classes in our first year, as well as many more who have attended our social events. With our upcoming summer schedule including leagues and events on Belle Isle, we are making the push downtown to make Detroit a place where people want to work, live and play. We are currently organizing "Dodge it in Detroit", an upcoming event on Belle Isle where we will have over 3,000 participants help break the Guinness Book record for largest dodgeball game ever! Eventually our goal is to have a hub for young adults in the city of Detroit for all their social needs.

 I started my own business as a photographer five years ago while I was finishing college in Rochester,  as I found a lot of friends in my personal extended network getting engaged. For me, photography was something I knew I always wanted to do for work since it was already a passion throughout my life. It was just a matter of getting started when I did, which launched my success at an early age. Since I have always felt talented creatively, I have been working to expand my business in the past year to offer my fine art photographs on canvas for sale, as well as begin designing more as a graphic artist as well as interior decorating consulting & services. My favorite part of my job is the flexibility to work when & where I like, and traveling the country to photograph people in love. The flexibility was key for me, as I have also been raising my five year old as a single parent simultaneously since I started my self-employment. I love being a photographer because I love seeing & creating. Finding beauty or uniqueness in something and translating that from my personal point of view is so fulfilling as a creative.

I own a small design company based out of Metro Detroit.  I launched my company because I was having trouble finding a job that suited me and all of my experience since graduating from college was in the event industry.  As much as I loved working on events/weddings, I wanted to expand upon that creatively and allow myself and my brand to do more than just events.  I spent a while deciding on what I thought represented me and my style best.  After a lot of research and self-reflection, I landed on the idea of finding style in every day life.  Whether it was something as large as a wedding or as simple as re-organizing one's closet, I wanted to apply my love for style, fashion and design into one place.  I love what I do because it's a way of helping people and being creative at the same time.  I couldn't imagine having my business in any other area than Metro Detroit.  We have great, unique shopping here and fabulous vendors...it's the perfect fit for me and my company and I am happy to call it home.

Monica Lynn

My role as a Digital Production Manager is exactly what it sounds like. I manage the production of various digital projects including websites, on-line advertising, e-mail, and in-market display advertisements for a major automotive client.  MRM has given me opportunities to gain experience in content management, interfacing with international counterparts, project management, web maintenance, collaboration on special projects, and placing me on the cusp of innovative technology. All of which makes me a “hybrid” asset to the company.  

Before starting with MRM, I worked in Florida at Walt Disney World® Resort in Sales and Marketing. When the economy declined, so did my position.  So I moved back to Michigan and into my parents’ house – like many post-grads.  After months of job searching and hundreds of applications, I got a phone call from a recruiter at a new agency in town.  MRM Worldwide pulled my resume from CareerBuilder and were interested in interviewing me!

What I love about MRM (and what I specifically look for in a company) is that they provide an amazing support system to their employees from not only a teamwork perspective, but also from a personal and professional development standpoint.  The management team is dedicated to helping us reach our goals and recognizing those who stand out and perform exceptionally. The perks are nice as well - 24-hour coffee bar, fruit on Mondays, bagels on Thursdays, and more, all while wearing your favorite pair of jeans.  We also have patio parties in the summer, outings/events, and get greeted daily by a sweet concept car parked in the lobby. The “Changing of the Car” is usually an event.

If any post grad felt the downfall of Michigan's economy, it was me. Having graduated two years ago in the Spring of 2008, I had quite a difficult time getting my career going. Fresh out of college, I was ready to show the world what I was made of and to begin my professional career, but the job outlook in Michigan was not looking very bright. My job search focused mainly on available positions in Michigan. I was also seeking out of state, but did not give up on Michigan that easily. After months and months of patience, yet painstakingly searching, I got lucky!

I was hired on as a Marketing Intern with Anchor Bay Entertainment. Anchor Bay Entertainment is one of the leading distributors of independent feature films and home entertainment products, and is the home entertainment division of Starz Media, LLC. While interning, I worked with the Children genre brand manager and director to strategically put together marketing plans, advertising, PR, promotions, artwork, package design, and run sales and POS reports for the Children category of home video product lines. I worked heavily on a brand called Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! Wubbzy, a hit show for children that runs daily on NickJr, among several other brands.

My role at Anchor Bay Entertainment switched gears after my internship. I am currently a Marketing Brand Manager, working on the Fitness genre - a position I truly enjoy! There are many roles within this position, which consist of: assisting in the leadership of development and execution of new DVD releases, helping to manage the product life cycle involved in bringing together new Fitness DVDs from concept to delivery, creating consumer and trade marketing materials, putting together presentation decks, industry/category analysis, developing marketing and sales materials, tracking and routing creative development, running sales forecasts and POS reports, and working with several outside vendors and all internal departments (sales, retail marketing, operations, finance) to achieve the highest success of our brands and ensure timely delivery of materials that make up our products. I collaborate with and support the SVP of Brand Marketing, SVP of Creative & Product Development, and the Fitness Brand Manager. We are a great team and together we strive for the success of our brands!

Staying optimistic and being persistent have always been my two keys to success!

Priyan Weerappuli

After graduating from MSU, I spent three years developing a web-based platform where researchers and non-researchers can openly debate, discuss, and actively participate in meeting the challenges that our generation, and our world, will face in the years to come. To this end, in February I launched the research microfinance component of this platform that allows young researchers to propose research projects, and to receive funding (in the form of microinvestments) from the broader online community, in exchange for engaging in 'open-source' research practices - which means that all information and raw data produced during the research will be released unfiltered, and made openly available.  Ultimately, my hope is that these efforts will succeed in cultivating a global culture of innovation and community!

In terms of my day-to-day work; I spend most days splitting time between communicating with academic researchers (professors, lecturers), responding to questions/concerns regarding the research microfinance platform and developing/managing the online environment.  In addition, every so often, I also am privileged to speak with college/high school students regarding the importance of scientific research for ourselves and our future.

I administer and prepare edits to the zoning ordinance.  Recently, I began the process to update the Township's master plan, a document that describes the vision for the future of West Bloomfield.  In addition, I oversee the CDBG grant program for the Township (distribution of federal funds to help low income and senior residents in the community) and the EECBG grant, part of the stimulus package, to improve energy efficiency at Township facilities to help West Bloomfield become a more sustainable community.

It might be easier to describe what my job doesn't include! Our small department within BNP Media manages webinars and virtual trade shows for the over 60 B2B publications that we own. That puts about 15 magazines featuring about 70 webinars per year under my coordination. I stay very busy with everything from helping sales staff sell the product to managing every detail on live event day. Much of my time is spent creating promotions for each program and I'm very lucky to be able to incorporate my desire to be creative with my analytical skills to have a position which I truly love. I am always on my toes, but also able to immediately and effectively implement ideas that contribute to our company.

When I'm away from my desk, I volunteer for a 100% No-Kill Animal Rescue, Almost Home Animal Rescue League, based in Southfield, Michigan. It's a cause that I strongly believe in and work on the Fundraising/Events committee to create/promote/manage programs that raise money to help love these wonderful animals.

I love Detroit, the surrounding areas and Michigan. My hope is that we can pull together and once again become a place that people want to call home. Go Spartans!

Working at Arzika is both a pleasure and a challenge.  I enjoy the freedom of brainstorming to come up with new and better ways to work on our events.  At 23, I attend meetings and know that my opinion is listened to and taken into consideration or execution.  

As the Communications Specialist at Arzika, I am able to wear many hats working within many different departments including PR, marketing, production and operations.  Multi-tasking and time management are a must in my everyday life.  While I enjoy having various tasks throughout the day, keeping up with all 4 departments is always a challenge.

My schedule changes hour to hour, I never know what I will be doing for what department and I love it! Working in such a fast paced environment makes the day go by so much faster and keeps from becoming monotonous.

Anna VanderMarliere

I feel very fortunate to have two jobs that I absolutely love! I'm a producer/board operator (DJ) for the Karsch and Anderson show on 97.1 The Ticket, WXYT. Working in sports radio has always been a dream of mine, and I couldnt ask for a better environment or better co-workers than I have at the Ticket. I have always been very proud to be from the best sports city in America, and having the opportunity to work for the flagship station for Detroits 4 major sports puts me right in the middle of the action. Everyday, I learn, laugh and interact with fascinating people and passionate Detroit sports fans.
 
Ten years ago, I turned one of my biggest passions into a profession. I am Goalie Coach for local AAA  Ice Hockey organizations and high school programs; and 4 years ago started my own business, Point Blank Hockey School, LLC.  Point Blank specialize's in on-ice and off-ice training for Goaltenders, Girls High School programs and Youth Skill and Development. Having grown up in St. Clair Shores, playing hockey has always been an enormous part of my life and provided me with  friendships and memories that I hold dear to my heart. However, although playing was a blast, coaching gives me gratification beyond words. Seeing these children progress and gain confidence both on and off the ice, is an amazing feeling. This game has created so many opportunities for me and made so many of my dreams come true; if I can help just one player succeed and have those opportunities that they dream about, I will have accomplished my goal as a coach.
 
I look forward to going to work everyday and am so grateful to be from, live in and give back to Metro Detroit.

Stephanie Angelyn Casola

In January 2009 I stepped away from the career I loved and had never imagined leaving. After working for more than a decade as a full-time reporter covering arts, entertainment and news across metro Detroit, I watched newspapers, magazines and media outlets shrink and collapse around me. I knew I had to find a new way to use my writing skills and media experience. I had worked as a freelance copywriter for Publicity Works in the past and had a great working relationship with both Lisa Maas, the president of Publicity Works, and PR Manager Jim Miller.

The moment I announced I was leaving journalism and looking to make the move into public relations, they were both very supportive. I was hired on in a temporary capacity for a position that quickly led to my current full-time job as an account executive and content manager. I hope I was able to bring a reporter's perspective to our work, a sort of insider's understanding of deadlines, newsroom culture and story angles. I also made the move at a key time as social media began to take hold and transform in the industry. On my first week of work, Lisa suggested I read David Meerman Scott's The New Rules of PR and Marketing. With so much new to explore in the realm of social media, I was really drawn to the myriad of ways we are able to help share our clients' messages.

At Publicity Works I was encouraged to jump in with both feet and learn the PR ropes from every angle. I still spend much of my days writing – though now it is more often in the form of new business proposals, press materials and correspondence with reporters or clients. I love the fact that, as in my previous career, my days are never predictable. There is always a new challenge to tackle. We work with a wide range of clients – from restaurants to fashion taste-makers, non-profits and unions to financial experts. The approach changes to suit the needs of each one. I'm constantly researching some new topic. I've spent mornings looking on as one of our chef's cook on television;  days running around Fashion in Detroit runways to connect reporters with designers; and evenings supporting charitable events we've promoted. The work is fast-paced, interesting and unpredictable.

To keep my inner-journalist happy, I write a blog and freelance whenever there is time and opportunity to do so. I've found that as long as I'm doing work that I believe can make a difference, or shed light on something wonderful happening in the metro Detroit area, then I've accomplished something worthwhile. I feel lucky to continue to have that opportunity each day.

Dave Lemieux

My career with Biznet began in February of 09’ as an intern. I signed up with Oakland University’s career services in January of 09’ and within a month I received a phone call for an interview. They said they saw my resume on Oakland’s database (I didn’t even reach out to them!) and brought me in. I was ecstatic and a little nervous given it was my first interview for a possible “career job,” but I nailed it and got the paid internship I was hoping for. While pursuing a degree in Business Marketing I knew this was the perfect opportunity for me to jump-start my career! Over the following months I gained a vast amount of knowledge on digital marketing, social media, and the importance of communicating effectively. Come September business was starting to boom and I was offered a full-time position as Marketing Coordinator. I was overjoyed and didn’t even think twice; I took the offer.

My responsibilities today include website copy writing and tweaking, search engine optimization, article and video distribution, analyzing metrics, social media monitoring, building client relationships...basically the behind the scenes stuff that helps companies websites get ranked higher in search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing...etc). I love what I do and I love the team I work with (probably most important factor for a successful business). The most rewarding part for me is seeing these campaigns, that we work so hard on, succeed and drive traffic along with potential business to their websites.

Doug Menzer

Controlled chaos is a great oxymoron and - it's how I feel my career has evolved over the past few years. Shortly after graduating from MSU (in May 2000) and winning my first full-time position at VSI Holdings, my mother, father, grandparents and close mentor's advice came true once again. Nothing comes easy (especially in Detroit.) I had found a great company to work for (side by side with 100's of great people) and it didn't work out. Not because I was fired, but the large holding company closed the doors and it was time for all of us to roll up our sleeves and move on.

I thrived on the spontaneity of that first job – so I immediately went back to work for a great company that I did an internship for in 1998 called Budco: The Dialogue Company. I was fortunate enough to have several management roles at Budco and worked under great leadership who had an entrepreneurial spirit. I admired many of the great mentors and witnessed how loyalty, leadership, passion and IT expertise aided in the company's incredible growth.

During my own entrepreneurial moonlighting gig starting in 2005 (with a partner based out of Saginaw), we successfully facilitated the rapid growth of an emerging ecommerce surgical supply company, Freshmenz Marketing Group. We aggressively winning several major Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) RFP’s. Then after strategically acquiring funding in late 2006 by a Management Company based out of Saginaw, Michigan, we opened a new office in Wixom, MI and I worked with organizations such as the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) to help the surgical supply company network in Southeast Michigan to promote breakthrough growth. In early 2007, with this great entrepreneurial success in the surgical supply business, I carried on to other consultation jobs (with CJPS Enterprises) within the healthcare industry prior to joining SmartFinds Internet Marketing, entering back into marketing communications full time.

Today, having had experience with many fortune 100 clients and developing many great relationships built on trust, hard work and integrity, my vision (along with my partners) for our region is growth.  My background is extremely diversified so I'm comfortable with clients in the automotive, non-profit, healthcare and retail industries, which is perfectly suited for building digital marketing and social media strategies. At Biznet, our team works hard - and long hours are sometimes necessary due to the company's growth with large projects and a large amount of new projects. Recently, I have been fortunate to work with many great people who are just as determined to continue moving the ball forward. If jobs don't exist, let's create them… There is certainly enough work to go around!
