On Thursday, October 16th, I will have worked at the George S. Eccles Ice Center as the Program Development Specialist for one year. It's amazing how fast it has gone by. I feel very fortunate to have my job, especially as my first "real" job. I work with wonderful people and have a great deal of flexibility in my schedule. It's true I'm not making it rich, but we're making our way as Bob finishes his degree. I have learned a lot about grant writing, program implementation, and nonprofits. In addition and maybe more importantly, I have learned a lot about myself including my potential and abilities. I am grateful for the opportunity to work and directly apply my education. I have been able to grow and develop as an individual, and I know that this experience will help me in my future life experiences.

I work to help fund the School Outreach Program and other skating programs like it that allow children to participate at affordable rates. It feels good to have one year down.
