Breitzke loves being around a lot of different people and finding out more about them; ultimately, following this adventure was a dream come true.

“I think I am where I am today because of the connections I made at Purdue University North Central while being a communication and business major. Staying local helped me build my network,” shared Breitzke. Promoting and building his brand was much easier staying close to home.
