When you crisscross the country, you make a lot of connections. April Albritton ’06 traveled to Seattle and back to Greensboro as she explored the connection between sports and business.

Through connections she’d made working with UNC Greensboro’s Spartan Club, she became chief of staff for the city manager of Greensboro. It’s a new adventure and an unexpected twist after her years working in athletics.

And as much as she enjoyed living on the west coast, it’s nice to reconnect to her southern roots, and help other young people find work and homes in the Gate City. “In Greensboro, you get what you want in a big city,” she says, “But you don’t have to deal with the big city rush.”
