Hi team.
- 00:01 - 00:03
Welcome to our first group meeting.
- 00:04 - 00:05
My name is Bryn Mawr.
- 00:06 - 00:08
In your manager in the graphic design company that you
- 00:09 - 00:12
are now part of and for our starting meeting.
- 00:12 - 00:14
I wanted to use this time for all of you
- 00:14 - 00:16
to get to know me and know how I got
- 00:16 - 00:18
to the position I am in today.
- 00:19 - 00:22
Before I got to the management rolling in today, it
- 00:22 - 00:26
took a lot of hard work and many years of
- 00:26 - 00:28
dedication and many parts of my life.
- 00:29 - 00:31
But that first step that I took in the first
- 00:31 - 00:34
place that the hard work had to start was decided
- 00:34 - 00:35
to go back to college.
- 00:36 - 00:39
Going to college after high school was a tough decision.
- 00:39 - 00:42
But when I'm sure you're all familiar with and I
- 00:42 - 00:45
know the feeling whenever I say I felt like I
- 00:45 - 00:47
had to do it, even though I didn't have an
- 00:47 - 00:51
exact idea of what I wanted to dio but decided
- 00:51 - 00:54
to go to college after years of being away was
- 00:54 - 00:55
actually much easier.
- 00:56 - 00:58
Of course, I had to consider the fact that I
- 00:59 - 01:02
didn't have it's much help with scholarships or my parents
- 01:03 - 01:05
to help with paying for things But when I know
- 01:05 - 01:08
I still wanted to go back to school, even with
- 01:08 - 01:13
those additional challenges that I wasn't presented with initially, I
- 01:14 - 01:15
know it was still the right move for me.
- 01:16 - 01:19
However, those hurdles were still very impactful of my decision
- 01:19 - 01:20
on where I wanted to go to school.
- 01:21 - 01:24
I did want to go somewhere that would give me
- 01:24 - 01:26
the best education but would not put me into major
- 01:27 - 01:30
debt that could ruin the benefits of me getting that
- 01:31 - 01:31
degree at all.
- 01:32 - 01:34
It was also very important for me that I stayed
- 01:34 - 01:37
in Florida as much as it would have been great
- 01:37 - 01:41
to travel to a different state for school, Not only
- 01:42 - 01:45
can it sometimes be five or times are even more
- 01:45 - 01:48
expensive to go to an out of state school, but
- 01:49 - 01:52
also leaving the state at the time would have taken
- 01:52 - 01:55
me away from my job, which was my income that
- 01:56 - 02:00
was supporting me through schooling as well as paying for
- 02:00 - 02:02
that schooling and the loans that it did need to
- 02:02 - 02:03
take out for school.
- 02:04 - 02:08
So that was something else really important for me and
- 02:08 - 02:10
with this many schools is their arm or in Florida.
- 02:11 - 02:13
It did take a lot of time to sift through
- 02:14 - 02:17
and compare them to find which one would best suit
- 02:17 - 02:22
me. Ultimately, it came down Thio, UCF, University of Central
- 02:22 - 02:26
Florida and Valencia because they both had campuses that I
- 02:26 - 02:27
could easily commute Thio.
- 02:28 - 02:31
They had a lot of great opportunities, like the different
- 02:32 - 02:36
labs that were presented for me and online courses as
- 02:36 - 02:39
well, which I think everybody during that era is really
- 02:39 - 02:41
comfortable with because of co vid.
- 02:42 - 02:46
So with that, um, it was something that I had
- 02:47 - 02:51
to think a lot about, but ultimately it was a
- 02:51 - 02:52
pretty easy decision for me.
- 02:53 - 02:57
I had initially going for an A at Valencia when
- 02:57 - 03:01
I first went to college right out of high school,
- 03:01 - 03:03
and it left a great impression on my mind.
- 03:04 - 03:07
I had a great time and I benefited a lot,
- 03:08 - 03:10
even though it was just a general education.
- 03:11 - 03:14
So even though both of the classes for me both
- 03:14 - 03:18
of the colleges, had Thekla passes, I needed to take
- 03:18 - 03:22
and were in a reasonable amount of distance for me,
- 03:24 - 03:26
it volunteer was just the best fit.
- 03:26 - 03:29
It was also a fraction of the price compared to
- 03:29 - 03:32
U. C F so as nice as you CF is.
- 03:33 - 03:35
Volunteer was just the one for me, and I'm so
- 03:35 - 03:37
happy that it did work out the way that it
- 03:37 - 03:39
did after graduating from Valencia.
- 03:40 - 03:44
Those two years of doing all the classes to get
- 03:44 - 03:47
my degree, I was finally able to start searching for
- 03:48 - 03:51
design companies who fit my lifestyle and health a bit
- 03:52 - 03:53
blessing values that I did.
- 03:54 - 03:56
It was pretty important to me and I was looking
- 03:56 - 04:01
for company who gave back caring for the community and
- 04:01 - 04:02
the employees as well.
- 04:03 - 04:05
I wanted to make sure the place I was joining
- 04:05 - 04:10
have the same values and made sense for me because
- 04:10 - 04:12
I was planning to be a part of that company
- 04:12 - 04:15
for a very long time, if not the rest of
- 04:15 - 04:15
my life.
- 04:16 - 04:18
I I was also happy to be in a place
- 04:18 - 04:20
after graduating that I could move virtually anywhere.
- 04:21 - 04:24
I wanted to from my job, and it was a
- 04:24 - 04:27
very lucky position to be in, and I'm so happy
- 04:27 - 04:30
I put the work in for myself because I was
- 04:30 - 04:32
on that career path that allowed me to travel all
- 04:33 - 04:35
over now, and I've always wanted to be able to
- 04:35 - 04:35
leave Florida.
- 04:36 - 04:39
Honestly, I have been waiting for that opportunity for a
- 04:40 - 04:40
long time.
- 04:40 - 04:42
Thio explore an adventure.
- 04:42 - 04:46
So once I graduated, it was the first thing I
- 04:46 - 04:48
did. And I'm so happy that I had that opportunity.
- 04:49 - 04:51
And I'm so happy to say that I finally found
- 04:51 - 04:52
the job that I am in today.
- 04:53 - 04:54
Um, it was a lot of hard work.
- 04:54 - 04:56
10 years of hard, hard work.
- 04:57 - 05:00
But I'm finally here, and I'm so thankful for that
- 05:00 - 05:01
journey. And I'm happy to be here.
- 05:01 - 05:02
Is your manager today.
