Lundy Begins Work as Content Specialist


English alumna Samantha Lundy has officially started her work as a Content Specialist at Hillyard, Inc. Samantha will be working on maintaining and managing Hillyard’s master data and online products. She has also have been tasked with comparing Hillyard’s site’s layout to competitors’ sites and looking at ways Hillyard’s site can be more user friendly.


Samantha credits her coursework here at Western for preparing her for the position:

“The principles I learned in Dr. Charlton’s class have been extremely useful for my site comparison and layout project. Working as the MoRe Prize coordinator for Mochila Review with Dr. Kunkel had given me the skills to understand how to handle and organize large amounts of data. Dr. Adkins’ classes showed me how to be professional, work on a collaborative team, and gave me the opportunity to manage projects that led to an internship that was a stepping stone to my employment at Hillyard. I am so grateful to the staff and faculty of the MWSU EML Dept. and am proud to call myself an alumna!”

 
Congratulations, Samantha! We're pretty proud, too!
