I graduated, looking for a job behind the scenes I contacted Vanessa. She immediately circulated my resume. In 2 months I had 3 offers. I took one and settled in. Vanessa took a job out of state.

I was home for Christmas. I was hanging out with some friends when one said, "I hear your girl crush won an award."

I knew about the one in college but she explained this was a national broadcasting award. I looked it up on my phone. It was a big honor. I was excited for her. Coincidently, a little later, I

ran into Vanessa downtown. She was also home to see her mom...
