Misty Grayned

I am currently a senior, majoring in marketing, striving to become an essential member to a design team for a company who values hard work and creativity, and is open to new ideas. I currently work for the Country Club of Decatur as a server. My position also requires me to some times use my skills of creativity to aid in the visual design elements of special events. It also requires a high level of professionalism, communication, attention to detail and memorization. I have had the opportunity to participate and compete in the Millikin University’s start-up weekend, which is a 3-day event where participants work in a group to create a start-up company by using their skills and knowledge to create a plan for success. I worked along side three others to create a product named duradome. It is a protective insert for outfielders that can fit into a regular baseball cap. The purpose is to give them the head protection they need without hindering their view of the field. Our product won first place because it was practical and functional. This product is currently under development.
