Transcript: I’m a husband, I’m a father to a one-year-old and I’m a supervisor at Delta Airlines. My life is really busy. The reason I chose UWGB for the Organizational Leadership program is cuz, I loved having it online. I was in New Orleans for work and after my shift, I would go to the hotel room and work on homework and so or I would work on the plane. The classroom can be anywhere and you can learn from anywhere. My favorite classes were taught by Patricia Hicks. She was an amazing instructor and I learned so much and like and everything she taught I was just like, this is amazing. Like, I would like I haven’t been so passionate about an instructor before where I’m just like at home being, like this is like she knows her stuff. The Organizational Leadership program I would say has been, one of the best decisions in my life. This is my second crack at education. Um, I went to UW-Oshkosh and didn’t do so hot there and I went to UWGB, and the instructors within the program they you know you really get a sense of care. You can do a lot with Organizational Leadership for me example, I’ve taken it so I can work my way up into Delta Airlines. I started Delta Airlines in 2015 and I became a supervisor in 2017. Over the last 6-7 years, I’ve been that supervisor and so there’s positions that I need to uh have a bachelor’s in. There’s so much things I can do with degree, that I’m just really excited to see what I can utilize my degree for.
