About this Event

In this fireside chat, Anna Marcus traces her path from double-majoring in Game Design and Japanese Studies at DePaul, to her current role as Product Planning Manager at Bandai Namco Amusement America.


She'll walk us through the decisions, skill-building moments, and unexpected advantages that shaped each step of that climb, and what students can do right now to set their own trajectory in motion


This talk will be moderated by Assistant Professor Allen Turner, and is free and open to the public.
