My name is Emma Webb and I am a senior at Grand View University studying marketing and finance. Originally from Pleasant Hill, IA, I didn't have to travel far to find the next place I'd call home. During my time at college, I have gained many valuable experiences that have helped shape me into who I am today. Through clubs, student leadership teams, jobs, internships, and classes, I have learned more about myself and the career I hope to obtain. As graduation is nearing, I look forward to the possibility of finding a full-time role in marketing at a nonprofit organization, though I am eager for any opportunity that may present itself. While my roots are certainly in Des Moines, Iowa, I would love to travel or move elsewhere for just a couple of years following graduation. I look forward to embarking on the next stage of my life and career.
