Alumna Grace Luppi 鈥�15 has a golden voice that propelled her into the world of communications, using her voice for radio advertisements for the College. This experience resulted in a career in radio and upcoming graduation with a master鈥檚 from Northwestern University.
鈥淎fter I graduated from 黑料网吃瓜爆料, I started working for WSBT Radio as their Promotions Director. I coordinated and planned fun and engaging marketing campaigns for clients while utilizing my own personal voice for radio commercials. Although this role was the perfect fit for me, I moved to Dallas, Texas, to be closer to my family, where I joined the communications team at Baylor Scott & White,鈥� said Luppi. 鈥淎fter two and a half years of employment, I decided to pursue graduate school, and this coming December I will receive my Masters of Science in Communication from Northwestern University.鈥�
鈥淲hen I was a student at Holy Cross, I was asked by the administration if I would be interested in utilizing my personal voice for radio commercials to help promote the College. I was so honored to be selected to share my Holy Cross story on the radio,鈥� notes Luppi. 鈥淏ecause of this experience, I was able to get to know the radio talent at the station very well, and soon after graduation, I started my career at the station which made me realize my love for communications.鈥�
Holy Cross influence
鈥淲hat I really loved about Holy Cross was that it was a small, close-knit college that was able to provide me the most amazing experiences that would be very difficult to do in a larger school. I was so fortunate to be able to participate in so many different areas of student life. Besides my involvement in the radio commercials, I was a Resident Assistant, a Senator in the Student Government, and a team leader on Campus Ministry,鈥� said Luppi. 鈥淭hose experiences, combined with smaller classes, allowed me to interact 1:1 with the professor and other students which provided me a very distinct, yet very fruitful college education.鈥�
Impactful moment
鈥淚 moved to South Bend, Indiana, from California for Holy Cross, and since the day I was admitted, the faculty, staff, and students were all so welcoming and kind. Even though I graduated from Holy Cross six years ago, the faculty and staff still reach out, which makes me feel still very welcomed in the Holy Cross family,鈥� recalls Luppi.
The future
鈥淚 feel very fortunate to be graduating with my Masters of Communication from Northwestern, and I would love to offer any assistance to the students at Holy Cross when pursuing graduate school,鈥� said Luppi.
