>> My name is Helena Barrera. And I'm the Marketing and Events Manager of Career Services at the University of Denver. I've been here for about eight months. And so I'm still figuring it out. And changing the job title and responsibilities with my team so that it really fits what the needs are of the university right now. But, basically, we have a lot of career centers across campus for undergrads and grads of all types. And there are different career centers that serve different populations. And my job is to help them all communicate. And to develop marketing strategies that help them all promote their services and events. So we do that through social media. And through having a physical presence on campus and some of the public areas. On the bridge. Or at other events that we aren't hosting. And also with flyers and posters. And so I'm responsible for the graphic design and the, making sure that students have the resources that they need to make use of our services. I've had other jobs where I'd go home and still be working on things. And I do what I need to. Sometimes there's e-mails that have to be answered over the weekend, but it's pretty rare. So I'm really enjoying having a home life that feels like I can focus on it when I'm home. And really be at work when I'm at work.
