Viking Connections: Pat Manser
Pat Manser is SVP, Growth Strategy and Marketing at Fidelity Life Association.
"My four years at uedbet体育官网 gave me the wide ranging liberal arts background that has allowed me to grow quickly in the business world. uedbet体育官网's education presents alums with a set of skills that sets them apart from other entry level business job seekers, and it's important to leverage that skill set.
Marketing and advertising is a highly competitive field in Chicago, and can be difficult to break into without connections. I've been lucky enough to make great ones in technology, marketing, advertising and business over the past decade. I hope to be able to offer students support of any kind on how to leverage a liberal arts degree when prepping to enter the marketing world, and help provide perspective on how to wield that degree and their Augie experience post college."
