I work in Wayne State University's Business Operations Division which manages retail development, film and photography requests, parking, campus recreation, business services, contract administration, the Student Center, the McGregor Memorial Conference Center and the university OneCard. I have quite a few roles. I assist our retail tenants and Business Operations Departments with marketing communication and public relations efforts for the campus and surrounding community. I serve as a liaison with producers and photographers who wish to film or photograph the WSU campus. I serve as a liaison to the university Marketing and Communications Dept. on behalf of the departments within Business Operations. I also assist the associate vice-president of Business and Auxiliary Operations with special projects. Some special projects include the BusOps Update, an e-newsletter distributed to WSU students, faculty and staff, as well as, the Midtown community, the Show Your OneCard and Save program which allow businesses to showcase their special discounts for WSU and a retail website (coming soon) which will help promote the restaurants and businesses on the WSU campus to the community.
I enjoy working with a group of such talented and committed people. The campus atmosphere is vibrant and positive which help me to stay motivated. I enjoy the variety and autonomy that my work provides as well. One of the benefits that I appreciate most is tuition assistance. It was an integral factor in my decision to return to school for a master's degree in Communication.
