FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
 
October 7, 2015 (Fairfax, Va) – Abbi Boose, recent graduate of George Mason University, has officially passed her six-year mark as an account manager at LeapFrog Solutions.
 
Boose graduated George Mason in 2010 with a major in communication concentrating in public relations as well as a minor in tourism and events management. She was active within students organizations on campus as well, including the Gamma Phi Beta sorority and Lambda Pi Eta Communication Honor Society.
 
During her time at George Mason, she learned many valuable lessons.
 
“Network as much as you can,” said Boose. “Go to networking events and job fairs; never limit yourself.”
 
During her junior year, she landed an internship at LeapFrog Solutions; marketing and branding firm in Fairfax, Va. She has said that she achieved a lot as an intern and is a now employee at this company.
 
“My favorite achievement includes meeting former Washington Redskins tight end, Chris Cooley,” she said.
 
Also, she was able to help write a multimillion-dollar proposal alongside moving her way up to her current position as account coordinator.
 
Boose has seen lots of success as account coordinator at LeapFrog Solutions. Yet, she always wants to keep her work and personal life separated.
 
“I was so proud when I did my first pull-up this year,” she joked. “Balancing a work and personal life can be confusing at times, but it can all be handled with good time management.”
 
Boose said that she is very content with her current job but is open for possibilities in the future. Visit her staff page here.
