Christopher Cummings’s Summary

I'm graduating from Michigan State University in May of 2009 with a BA in Marketing. Most of my work experience has involved computer related work, and I really enjoy working in that field. I'm looking to start a career that will allow me to mix my passion and skills in computers and technology with my degree in Marketing. Ideally, I'd like to do some sort of Public Relations or Customer Relations.
