Alumna Jackie Yanchocik (Communication ‘12) is t Alumna Jackie Yanchocik (Communication ‘12) is the public relations and marketing coordinator for @warwick_sd in Lititz, Pennsylvania. Here’s part of her @ncstate story: “The summer before graduation I was hired as a marketing intern for the Philadelphia Eagles in my home state of Pennsylvania. My professors stressed how important internship experience was in that field. They always did whatever it took to help us succeed in looking for internships. I was so lucky to have many opportunities for learning and success through NC State. Even though PR was my concentration, I was able to take a few broadcast and media classes as well. Just before graduation, I found out that I was offered a job with FOX Sports Florida in Fort Lauderdale doing PR and media. Through that job, I got to work on the sidelines at Miami Heat games, Marlins games, Dolphins games, and other professional and college sporting events in South Florida. I know my degree from NC State played a huge role in preparing me for real-world work experience. After working in the sports broadcasting world for a year, I decided to switch paths and go into the cruise industry. My college teammate was working onboard Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas performing in the entertainment shows. I had a knack for travel, and this felt like an amazing opportunity I couldn’t pass up. So I went out to sea for seven months as part of the cruise entertainment staff. I got to sail to ports like Jamaica, Haiti, U.S. Virgin Islands, Mexico, and the Bahamas. This kickstarted my love for travel. Upon finishing my contract, I took an eCommerce and digital marketing position with Carnival Cruise Line, working in their corporate offices in Miami, Florida, where I produced content for their website. Fast forward a few years: I now oversee all the communication and PR for a school district back home in Pennsylvania. I know that my degree in communication has prepared me in a variety of ways for each type of job I’ve had throughout my career, and I owe all of that to NC State. I constantly say how proud I am to have my bachelor’s degree from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences.” #MyNCStateStory

Alumnus Logan Graham (Political Science ‘18, MIS Alumnus Logan Graham (Political Science ‘18, MIS ‘19) was recently selected as a Presidential Management Fellow (PMF). Here’s his @ncstate story: “I’ll be starting my fellowship with the U.S. Forest Service, where I will be based out of South Lake Tahoe, California. There, I will help lead new policy efforts in the area, working with the California and Nevada state legislatures to help rethink and better manage the public lands surrounding one of the most visited natural areas in the United States. As a PMF fellow, I will also serve on a rotation during my second year, and I am excited thinking about the possibilities of working with the U.S. Forest Service’s international programs, USAID, the Department of State and other agencies. NC State’s Master of International Studies (MIS) program was instrumental in helping me be selected as a PMF fellow and jumpstarting my career in the U.S. government. Not only did the MIS program present me with tons of unique opportunities — like interning with the U.S. embassy in Bolivia and conducting in-depth research on the social impacts of de-glaciation in the Peruvian Andes — but I was also given the opportunity to work closely with and form relationships with faculty and other students in the program. In fact, it was professors in the MIS program who first told me about the PMF program and encouraged me to apply to it.” #MyNCStateStory
