Where is Dianna now?

We’re happy to report that upon graduating, Dianna’s affinity for Risdall has been able to continue with her new position as full-time AE. She’s also moved in with her boyfriend, bought a new car, and enjoyed an amazing summer. She’s currently looking for her first house and planning a well-deserved vacation.

What is Dianna’s favorite part of her job?

Dianna says, the people she works with are amazing, both clients and co-workers, and especially the copywriters.

What does Dianna do in her free time?

She enjoys working out to really loud music. Dancing to moderately loud music. She also loves taking her dogs to the dog park, shopping, and the occasional Happy Hour!

What is the one thing Dianna you took from the Student Agency that has helped her so far in the “real world”?

Client relations. With that kind of savvy is it any wonder why we hired her.

What does she miss most about the Student Agency?

All of the other Student Agency members.

Now that she’s had “real world” experiences, what would she change about the Student Agency?

Dianna says, “You know, I don’t think I would change a thing. Yes it was fast paced and it always seemed like we were a day late and a dollar short, but that’s what the “real world” is like sometimes. John did a great job putting together this agency to work and operate as a real agency, and for that experience I would not change a thing!”
