I remember years ago visiting the Thunderbird School of Global Management when they had a campus in…read morethe West Valley. And then in 2014, everything changed as Arizona State University acquired Thunderbird, and Thunderbird became a unit of the ASU Enterprise. Since that time, ASU sold its Thunderbird campus to Arizona Christian University, and the graduate programs moved to the ASU Downtown Phoenix Campus to its own building while the newly created undergraduate programs moved to the ASU West Valley Campus until 2025 when they also moved to the ASU Downtown Phoenix Campus. Every now and then, I find myself on the ASU Downtown Phoenix Campus with a meeting in the Thunderbird School of Global Management. There is the Grumpy Mule Cafe on the first floor and the Thunderbird Pub on the fifth floor. There is also the global forum on the first floor with a large digital globe suspended from the middle of the rotunda showing a digital representation of Earth. There are flags on the first floor representing the home countries of all Thunderbird students. The building, opened in 2022, spans 110,000 square feet and offers flexible classroom space and regional lounges with art and artifacts gifted by alumni from around the world. Thunderbird now serves as a significant part of the ASU Downtown Phoenix Campus, which opened for classes in 2006. This campus meshes well with the Downtown Phoenix area as they share streets, parks, and nearby restaurants and stores. In fact, ASU is actively involved in monthly stakeholder meetings with the Downtown Phoenix Inc. (DPI). It helps Downtown stakeholders in knowing what's going on at ASU while it helps ASU to know what's going on around the Downtown Phoenix area. For instance, ASU students and staff enjoy participating in First Fridays while DPI is involved in ASU Welcome Week events. Also, during Family Weekend, Thunderbird hosts Regional Night, which is open to any ASU Downtown students and their families. At the Downtown Phoenix Campus, every student can drive their own experience as they engage in the events and resources on-campus while attending classes, getting an on-campus job, landing an internship or full-time job, joining clubs and organizations, attending many free events and activities, and so much more. The Dean of Students Office (in the Post Office) and the many student services offices at ASU Downtown Phoenix are always there for students, and it's easy to find your way towards graduation and your future when taking advantage of these resources. I look forward to seeing what comes next for such an engaging school like Thunderbird and a campus such as the ASU Downtown Phoenix Campus in the coming years!

I was promptly kicked out of the waiting area because they said they do not allow guests to wait for their families due to security reasons. When asked whether I could take one of their 20+ chairs into the building lobby (void of all seating), I was turned down. The policies here are rude and obnoxious. I decided to sit down on the floor with my back against the large open window to the lobby.

The college search and application process is stressful and can be very confusing. Erin Goodnow was…read morethe perfect coach and advisor for our high school senior, especially in a Covid world where old patterns are upended. Erin is kind and compassionate and worked with our daughter to help her identify a solid list of schools. From there, she was a great guide - putting in place a system to keep our daughter on track with applications, essays, and all that is required to put a solid application together. As decisions come in, Erin has been a thoughtful sounding board - helping navigate choices, giving well-received advice, and sharing her own ideas. Bottom line - she is great. It was an investment that we would make again and recommend to others. We have a younger son, and I look forward to working with Erin when the time comes. The only thing I would do differently is reach out to her earlier....probably sometime in the junior year. Note - I am writing this as our daughter is in the midst of the process, and I think that is the right time to write this. The review is not meant to suggest that Erin is a guarantee to any school, or that is even what is best for a kid. Rather, she is a great counsellor through the process, helping her students self-identify the right fits, and there are many, through the process, a word I used a lot here. Maybe a kid writing a college essay would find a better synonym, but I already went to college (!) and it fits. It is a process - it takes time, patience, and trust. I am confident that Erin Goodnow and he team at Going Ivy are the right folks to walk the path with.

I recently attended a workshop held by Pam Heward of Box Free Minds. The event, Box Free Thinking…read more101, really challenged my thinking in terms of my career and personal life.

From the moment I walked into the office I was greeted with a friendly face and felt very welcomed! (shout out Mackenzie) That helped to ease the nervousness. Then the whole process was explained in detail (shout out Patti) and was given different options for my schooling and studying. They offer in office study guides and computers to do your practice tests. They also offer an online study course which has over 400 questions per practice test. It's insane and it works!!! There's no way you can not... not remember that stuff! Mind tricks, YO!!! :) I decided to go with the online option. It made it easy to work around my schedule and was able to get in some study time when the opportunity presented itself without having to drive anywhere. So while you're studying your brains out.... guess what Patti is doing at the office. She's putting in work for you by filling out and submitting all your required forms to the state! Doing all the leg work for your licensing. This place is legit!!! This place takes all the worrying out, so you can focus on studying and passing your test. The day before your test. This is it. Do or Die. Mano a Mano. But check this out. This place lets you borrow all those expensive books, you couldn't afford, to take with you to the final test. Brah!! You basically can't fail! Now that you hopefully passed... you just sit back and let Deisy and Patti take over for you. They submit everything you need to the ROC and it's smooth sailing from there! Big thank you to Patti, You the real MVP! :)

I was grateful for the ability to save money by creating the ads myself but hated that they never looked as professional as I had hoped. I was tired of the stress but not in a position to outsource all of our marketing design needs so I researched Photoshop training. After seriously considering one of the large online tutorial sites I discovered Lumenbrite. Their Photoshop Corporate Marketing Bootcamp sounded like exactly what I needed and I figured attending an on-site class would be more engaging and have fewer distractions than being at home. I just completed day four of my Bootcamp and am blown away by what I learned. My instructor Anthony was completely engaged with the material and students the entire time. He possesses the rare combination of technical computer knowledge and communication skills that empowers the people he teaches. He was patient, entertaining, and his never-ending enthusiasm for Photoshop is contagious. He took the time to learn about my goals and objectives and adapted the material to meet my needs. I am 100% confident the value of this course will be worth in excess of 10x the cost in the next 6 months alone. Thank you Anthony! I can't wait to attend my next Lumenbrite course!
