>> So I graduated in Millersville in 2001.
And Sight and Sound Theatres was a place that I had been before.
I had gone to shows there in college and in high school.
And I've always loved live theatre, but I wanted to work in media.
My degree was in speech communication broadcasting.
And they have a massive media department of over a dozen people,
so I wanted to be a part of that.
I applied but there were no media jobs at the time,
so I started working backstage as a stage technician in 2001.
And through many years I continued to love the backstage elements
and then eventually moved into the sales role.
What attracted me most to Sight and Sound was the mission.
There is a faith-based element, of course, doing bible-based shows,
so there was the ministry of the organization.
The health of the organization internally, how we really serve one another
and then we also serve our guests as well,
that type of atmosphere really drew me to Sight and Sound Theatres.
To my current role, I love people.
I love meeting new people.
And I love the company that I work for.
So being a business development manager kind of marries those two components together
and allows me to reach out and engage new people every day.
