There's Hope

An overwhelming number of my colleagues and friends in the class of 2005 have struggled to find happiness in the working world. We entered jobs hoping for a "stepping stone," a great networking opportunity, or for a good amount of money until our dreams become approachable. This process is probably very necessary, but nevertheless, it is agonizingly frustrating. Ideally, trekking through these preliminary positions will provide the motivation for greater purpose and responsibility. And with the cheerful intention of inspiring those enduring this enlightening post-graduate experience, allow me to introduce you to the first of my friends to receive a job she is passionate and excited about.

PORSHA DANAE SUMMERVILLE

Like many of the friends I graduated with, Porsha, a Public Relations major, entered the post-graduate life (also known as “the real world”) just hoping to open a door in her field. As a PR major, Porsha was one of the most stylish people I knew and her goal was to work at a PR firm representing a fashion line. She took a job as an administrative assistant for OK! Magazine, a popular British tabloid magazine just arriving to the US, just to get her foot in the door of an entertainment outlet in New York. OK! was intended to be a stepping stone, but she became increasingly frustrated not moving around within the company or finding that perfect opportunity elsewhere. She probably spent every day complaining to friends and searching the web for better opportunities until finally Showroom 7 gave her a taste of the fashion world.


Showroom 7 is a sales agency representing several national and international designers to major high-end department stores and boutiques all over the world. After 4 months as a sales assistant, the liason between the senior sales staff and buyers, still a little frustrated not being given the responsibility she desired, the company asked Porsha if she would be interested in being an Account Executive and she jumped at it!

So what on earth is an Account Executive? In her new position, she is responsible for growing clients businesses by meeting directly with stores and attending trade shows all over the world. So, that’s worldwide travel, a raise, and nurturing her passion for fashion. I could not be more proud (and jealous) of her and I can’t wait to brag on my many other friends as we outshine what’s expected of us and realize our dreams.

Can someone help me find it?

Overheard some co-workers talking about it all week but didn't have time to ask so I thought I would post it here to see if someone could help me out.

Seems to be getting alot of buzz right now.
