Alexis Zickuhr

Quality Control/ Social Media Specialist

United States

I spent the first 18 years of my life in Bettendorf, Iowa with my parents and three brothers. Both of my parents own their own businesses so I was raised in the small business world. After getting offered the chance to play softball at a small Christian school in Wisconsin, I made the venture five hours north and have spent the last four years of my life here. Over the past four years I have been given many opportunities that have helped me to enhance my knowledge and skills in the area of business, marketing, and social media.
I double majored in Business Administration with an emphasis in Sports Management and Leadership, as well as, Marketing with an emphasis in Digital Marketing. My last internship really gave me the chance to be in charge of social media accounts, the university blog, and pushed me to be creative and step outside of my comfort zone. I later went on to create a social media campaign for a new Women’s Leadership Institute. I am excited to show some of my work and looking forward to seeing where life takes me.

Have a Fabulous Week! - Lakeland University

It's the easiest thing to wake up Monday in a crabby, tired, or just "blah" mood. Why? Because it's Monday. It's almost become an excuse for not being in a good mood. But if you let your Monday slip through your fingers, you've only got four days left in the work week.
