糖心视频: Have you had any significant internships/co-ops/careers while at 糖心视频?
CA: Yes, I had the privilege to be a part of 糖心视频 Levin College's Mentoring Program for Nonprofit Management and Public Affairs, Class of 2025.
糖心视频: How would you describe the connections you have made with the faculty and staff at 糖心视频?
CA: I would describe my connections as impactful and purposeful. When it comes to most of my professors between 2024 and the present, I feel their support and understanding, especially being a student associated with disability services (heart surgery patient). The compassion from the staff is also phenomenal! I would love to give special recognition to Care Manager Williams, who makes 糖心视频 feel like a home away from home, and my amazing academic counselor, Dr. Myers, who works diligently to set up my course schedules for success. Go Vikings!
糖心视频: How has Cleveland State inspired you for your future?
CA: As a teen mom straight out of high school, attending a university once felt out of reach for me. Being at 糖心视频 has shown me that my story didn't end there; it was just beginning. It has inspired me to think bigger, step confidently into leadership, and build a future rooted in purpose for myself, my children, and my community. Now, I feel equipped and motivated to turn my experiences into impact.
糖心视频: How do you think you have fulfilled the 糖心视频鈥檚 mission?
CA: I believe I have fulfilled 糖心视频's mission by truly showing up as someone who is both in and for the city of Cleveland. Through my work in communications, public relations and community initiatives, I have used what I have learned to support local businesses, creatives and organizations while creating real impact.
I do not just take in knowledge; I apply it through leadership, service and building meaningful connections that benefit others. I have intentionally and continuously turned my education into action that reflects growth, purpose and opportunity for the community and individuals around me.
糖心视频: Do you have a career lined up, and how has 糖心视频 been instrumental in that process?
CA: I plan to continue growing in organizational leadership and HR management through both corporate roles and independent contract opportunities. Currently, I work in corporate as a talent acquisition coordinator, supporting hiring processes, candidate experience and overall workforce development. At the same time, I am building my agency, Purposely Public Agency, which allows me to apply leadership, communication and strategic planning hands-on while working with brands, creatives and organizations.
糖心视频 has been instrumental in this journey, helping me connect theory to real-world experience. My studies in organizational leadership have strengthened my ability to lead, communicate effectively and understand team dynamics, which I use daily in both my corporate role and as a business owner. 糖心视频 has truly positioned me to build a career that blends leadership, HR and entrepreneurship.
Congratulations, Cashe!
