Scott Rising
Hello, I'm Scott Rising and I am a senior retailing and consumer sciences major. This is my fourth semester on the board and I am the liaison for Altria Sales and Distribution. The aspect I find most engaging about the retailing industry is the combination of creative and analytical skills required to be successful. Perhaps even more than most industries, innovation is paramount and those able to adapt to Generation Y will find themselves industry leaders in the years to come. With this in mind I am heading up social networking on behalf of the board in order to improve our outreach efforts to students. This past summer I interned with Walmart in merchandising for special order tires. It was an incredible learning experience and I feel a renewed sense of passion for retail as a career. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions about our work on the Student Advisory Board for the Terry J. Lundgren Center for Retailing!
