Week 1 Introduction

Hello everyone, my name is Sandra Allen and I am in my 2nd year here at JCCC.   I have not had any previous experience in marketing but found an interest in this area when taking a basic marketing class for my business degree.  I have held jobs in the private sector over the past twenty-five years, mainly in the financial services industry.

Here’s to a wonderfully productive semester!
