Illinois State University School of Theatre and Dance alum Erin Levzow ’06 has created a unique path through her career. From starting out in Las Vegas after graduation with $800 in her pocket, to currently serving as the chief marketing officer at the Museum of Ice Cream in Chicago, Levzow has leveraged her theatre degree and the life skills it taught her, and she has been “collecting experiences” at every stop along the way.
In this episode of Redbird Buzz, Levzow shares how her Midwestern roots helped land her first marketing job, how Theatre of Ted and their mission of “daring to suck” prepared her for a future as a marketing executive, and she provides advice to young female professionals looking to take their seat at the corporate table.
