Braedon DeFalco

I am a recent graduate of University of North Carolina Wilmington with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and a concentration in Marketing Strategy. My goal is to enter the Marketing Analytics field, as that is where my passion lies. I pride myself on being a fast learner, avid listener, and excellent coworker. I have experience in both individual and team environments that I believe has set me up to be both versatile and flexible in the workplace. I strive in a fast paced environment where quick decision making and taking pride in your work is encouraged. I have experience as a Marketing Intern with the Wilmington Sharks where I worked with a team of fellow interns on the team's social media sites, game-day entertainment, and working closely with sponsors. My experience can also be reflected through relevant coursework in my studies. Throughout my academic career, I have worked with softwares such as Qualtrics, Google Analytics, and other Google SEO tools. I am eager to start my career and look forward to learning and experiencing everything this field has to offer!
