Meet Brooklyn, a graduating senior double majoring in Business Management and Marketing in the Carter School of Business!

When asked about her time in her classes, Brooklyn says, “I cannot recommend Professor Sandra Crawford Williamson’s classes enough — any of them. My top three were Digital Marketing, Marketing in the Startup, and Promotional Strategy. Each of these courses sharpened how I think about strategy, messaging, and reaching an audience, and I drew on all of them directly throughout my internship.
But beyond the classroom, she has shifted my whole world. She has been so much more than a professor to me — she has been a mentor, a leader, and someone who has genuinely walked alongside me every step of the way. From my time in leadership roles on campus, to navigating my internship, to stepping into a full-time role post-graduation, she has been there holding my head up through all of it.
She is a woman who has built a remarkable career in the business world, working her way up through hard work and excellence, and she brings that depth of knowledge and wisdom into everything she teaches. What makes her truly special, though, is that she never separates her faith from her work — she ties it into everything. Her testimony alone has opened my eyes in ways I didn’t expect, and watching her live as a successful businesswoman, a wife, and a mother of three has shown me what it really looks like to do it all with grace and purpose.
Rick Jordan’s Management Communication class was equally transformative. That course taught me how to speak with confidence in high-stakes settings — and I mean that literally. There were multiple moments this summer where I found myself speaking to rooms full of experienced professionals and C-level executives. The communication skills and presentation training I built in that class prepared me to hold my own and be taken seriously. The tools DBU gave me didn’t just look good on a resume — they worked in the real world.”

Congratulations, Brooklyn! We are cheering you on in your new sales role at Gartner!
