Where has the time gone?
Wow! This time last year I was applying to be the Young & Free Michigan Spokester. I cannot believe it’s been a year! It has been full of blogs, videos, events, presentations, give-a-ways and creativity. I am so grateful for the opportunity to empower young adults to be good managers of their finances. Besides making fun YouTube videos, my favorite part of being the Spokester is going to events and meeting you all!
Normally this would be the time I announce the passing of the torch, an opportunity for you to take my job. However, I’m excited to announce I’ll be staying on as the Young & Free Michigan Spokester for another year. I’m looking forward to what this term will bring and I’m excited to start off this summer by traveling around Michigan, including the Grand Rapids area – home of our newest branches! I hope to see you around while I’m out being Young & Free!
