The end is near. . . well, it's tomorrow actually.

Tomorrow is my last day with Disney Distribution Marketing. What an incredible year it has been. There are so many things I will take with me from this experience, but I think what I will treasure most are the people I have been able to meet along the way. We have made some incredible memories together.

There are so many people at this office who have my back. I am always so amazed at how many people are fighting for me to succeed. I can't thank any of them enough for what they have done for my career. Whether it was setting me up with meet and greets or sitting me down for career discussions, they have never stopped looking out for me. I have made professional contacts here that I will continue to keep in touch with for the rest of my life. We have some amazing leaders (and future leaders) at this company. They have impressed me every step of the way. I learn just from watching them.

And then, of course, there were those here who grew into more then just professional contacts. Those who have become dear friends. I could not have asked for a better mixture of people to work with on my team. Todd, Shannon, Kelsey, and Anna, what a fabulous time we have had together. I could write a book full of all our fun memories and it would be a best-seller at Urban Outfitters for sure. I am so grateful you all embraced my sometimes overly sarcastic personality with open arms. Not every day was full of roses. Yet, looking back, I don't know of a SINGLE day that we did not share a moment of laughter. You all helped me struggle through the bad days and you all celebrated the good days by my side. Without our friendship, I would not have enjoyed this experience like I have. I could go on for hours writing about all the moments we have created together, but that would bore all the people who don't understand us. I can just look forward to the years of reminiscing ahead of us. We have an endless supply of stories and blackmail on each other. I can't wait!

I don't really know what the future holds for me. I am taking a step into the dark. I can look back however, and clearly see the path I have left behind me. And it's a path I treasure. Thank you to everyone I have worked with in the past year. There are too many names to list, but you know who you are. Some day, we will all be working together again. I know that.

Cheers!
