Graduating: April 2009

Hometown: Rockford, IL

Employer: Littman Jewelers

Priscella D. - Retail Management

Priscilla started working in retail at age 16 and knew right away it was the field for her. Already working full time while completing her degree at PTI, Priscilla plans to do her internship with Littman Jewelers and continue working for the company after graduation – perhaps heading to Texas to manage a new store. She already has a high level of responsibility within the company, opening and closing the store and working with the in-store jeweler to make sure customer repairs are handled properly. Her classes at PTI are helping her to appreciate what she sees "behind-the-scenes" including management skills, proper customer service and merchandising.
