Buffs Go Pro's Parallel Path Shadow Day

BOULDER - As part of the Buffs Go Pro career development program, a group of ambitious student-athletes had the opportunity to participate in a shadowing experience at Parallel Path.

Parallel Path is a Boulder-based digital marketing agency that helps promote health, wellness and lifestyle brands through digital marketing. As part of the shadowing experience, student-athletes received an inside look into the digital marketing world. Touring the office and networking with industry professionals gave these student-athletes the first-hand experience of day to day life working at a digital marketing agency.

Track and Field student-athlete Ryan Ganson had this to say about the opportunity, "My experience at Parallel Path provided me a great opportunity to meet face to face with a potential employer. With fellow athletes there as well, the atmosphere was both inviting and professional! It was a great way to get my foot in the door and have any questions about the company answered directly and transparently."

Buffs Go Pro is a career development initiative in the CU Athletics Scripps Leadership and Career Development. This program focuses on developing personal and professional success by providing student-athletes with life skills workshops, career learning experiences, and transition programs into and out of CU.

If you or your organization is interested in hosting student-athletes for job shadows, internships, or participating in the Buffs Go Pro program, visit CUBuffs.com/ScrippsLCDP or email CUBuffLeadership@Colorado.Edu for more information and to get involved.
