Hello!

My name is Ryan (though I use my middle name of Chris) DeBoer. I own a mental health office here in the Lansing area and as a relatively new business owner I thought this class would be useful. Not terribly surprising to myself, I was late in starting the assignments for this week due to the time invested in my business.

I am currently taking classes for personal enrichment as well as to keep my student loans away. From here on in, I should have a better track record with being on time for things in this course.

Hi!

My name is Gabrielle, but I go by Gabby. I am currently a full- time student at LCC, and work part-time at a hair salon in Lansing. I hope to transfer after this year, but haven't decided where.

I grew up in Northville, Michigan but my family recently moved to Dexter. However, I live in East Lansing during the school year. I recently decided I wanted to change my major (again), and enrolled in some business courses this semester, to see if that is the path I'd like to take.

Some of my interests include: music, fashion, shopping, yoga, hanging out with friends, art, and traveling.

I believe that my time management skills are horrible, and procrastination is my worst habit. I took this class in hopes that I could learn new skills to positively impact this behavior.

Hello everyone!

My name is Ethan, currently studying at LCC and looking to transfer to MSU's engineering college.

My goal in life is to settle with a career that I am passionate about. I am currently studying to become a data engineer, with possibly a minor in computer science.

Alike many other careers, coding takes time and effort to do well.

Learning how to manage my time efficiently and effectively early will do nothing but good.

Looking forward to learn tips and tricks to build a lifestyle of doing work in the best way.

My name is Meghan Baty. I am currently in the business management program here at Lansing Community College. After I complete my associate’s degree next spring I will be continuing my undergrads at Central Michigan University in Human Resources.

I’m taking this course because it is required for my degree and I enjoy having Dr. Swchinn in my organization behavior course. My previous classmates and I made many jokes about this course and now I’m in it. Karma.

During the little spare time that I have is spent with my handsome five year old son. Being a mom is a full time job in and of itself but being his mommy makes it easy, I enjoy every single minute of every single day with him.

I currently work at Eaton County Transportation Authority, dealing with difficult people is a daily occurrence. Ive learned other many years in customer service that patience is key.

Introducing me
I have done several online classes and I enjoy them because I can get more accomplished at home without wasting time driving and save money on gas.

I love animals and I have had many kinds in my life. I always like to have a dog for a companion.

I’m working on a couple of degrees right now; my main interest is in psychology.

This course has always interested me and I hope that I can improve my time management.

Hello!
I'm Stefan Carlson, and I'm studying computer science at LCC as well as running cross country for the school, working two jobs, and doing occasional work as a freelance videographer and photographer. In case it isn't clear, I have an awful lot on my plate and I often find it very hard to make time for additional things each day.

To be honest, one of the main reasons I signed up for this class was to fulfill the 12 credit minimum to be eligible for running. Being halfway through the semester now and having read the introduction to the class, though, I am extremely glad I'm here. I'm hoping I will gain some valuable insight and learn how to better manage so many responsibilities each day.

Hello,

My name is Doug Rohrer, I have been in and out of college over the past several years. Seems like I always have a major life event come up that leads me to putting finishing school on the back burner. The past 5 years I have lost all 4 of my grand parents, I have gotten married, I have had 2 daughters, I have moved to Louisiana for 3 years, and finally this past summer, I moved my wife and kids back to Michigan where the majority of our family is. This time I am finishing regardless of what comes up, no more excuses.

I work as a Quality Assurance Specialist for a Distribution Center here in Lansing, I plan on using my schooling to benefit my experience and continuing my career in Food Safety.

Hello,

My name is Nick Battjes. I live in Fowlerville and attend my courses at the LIVCEN center. I attended Michigan Technological University for a year after graduating high school. I returned home after I realized I was not interested in the program I was entered in there and did not know what I wanted to do. I enrolled here at LCC hoping to find a new goal for myself while continuing school. I have plans for further schooling after LCC but am very indecisive and sadly still have not picked a career path.

I am lucky to have a job I enjoy working as a manager for an Adidas retail store. I spend the majority of my time working but I enjoy it. Although I do not know if I plan on working in business I enjoy the work I do now. I took this course thinking it could be helpful for my current job and help me gain further insight into business and if it is something I am further interested in studying.

I enjoy being active and outdoors all year long. One of my favorite hobbies is snowboarding. I’m not the best or able to do cool tricks but I enjoy getting fresh air and outdoor activity in the winter, I find it relaxing. Another one of my favorite activities is the yearly Tough Mudder event I run with my dad. Less active things I enjoy include movies, video games, and my favorite books.

Hello,
My name is Bryan Rendell. I have lived in Howell Michigan for the past 15 years and love it here. This is my fourth and final year at LCC and will be graduating with business management associate.
I work at a golf course in Howell for the past three years and couldn't ask for a better job. I work as one of the pro-shop  attendant with a couple of close friends which makes it even better. Unfortunately, the job isn't full year around with is a bummer so I have to find a new job for the holiday season. For the past few years, I have worked at my Aunts store here in downtown Howell. I will have to look for a full time job after this year.
Sports is definitely a big part of my life. I grew up playing baseball for basically my whole life and have traveled the U.S because of it. I have been to New York twice, California, Florida, Texas once and all of the states surrounding Michigan many times. I also played basketball through high school and I big fan of golf and football.
Michigan football and basketball are my two favorite teams and kind of obsessed with them. I have a sister, a cat and recently my family got a puppy named Skye. I'm looking forward for this class and getting to know all of you. Hoping for a great semester!

Hey all,
My name is Spencer Malone and just to be clear I am a female in case anyone was unsure. I usually get mistaken for a "he" so after that happened a couple times I just state now in all my DB's that I am a female. I am in my last semester of college I will graduate this December with my bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a major in management from Northwood University. I did the 3+1 program with LCC and Northwood and was able to complete my degree in about 2 and a half years. I plan on going to back for my masters I'm not sure what degree it will be in but getting my masters is a personal goal for me, it's just something that I want to have so I plan on going back in the fall of 2020 to get  my masters from Northwood.

Some other things to know about me is that I love the outdoors. It doesn't matter what season it is, you'll find me outside. In the summer especially I love kayaking, camping, going to the beach, riding my bike. In the fall and winter I'm usually outside at the orchards or pumpkin patches and when the snow hits I'm up north skiing or snowmobiling. I also have one dog and a cat. I'm definitely looking forward to this class because it means that I am that much closer to getting my degree!

Hello,

My name is Steven Eckert. I recently moved back to Michigan from Raleigh, North Carolina where I have lived and worked for the past 20 yrs. I am returning to LCC to finish my education after leaving many years ago to travel. I have been a people leader in various positions for the majority of my career, however, most recently I was a Financial Business Consultant for BCBSNC.

I have returned to complete my degree, which is the only regret I have ever had over the years. I have been very lucky to have had an amazing career and many opportunities offered to me that would have normally required a degree. Well, now I am taking a step backwards for a couple years and taking a work sabbatical off to finish something I started 31 years ago. I have made many sacrifices and adjusted life in many ways to return to school, but I am so happy to be here and following my dream!

Ultimately, I will have my BS in Organizational Psychology, which in my opinion will soon become a hot new job market! I am hoping to do a 3/1 program here at LCC. I will need to lock into my final plan Fall term. I am looking forward to this class and I hope that I will have something to offer that may be unique and beneficial to the class!
