Logan getting a social distance session in at his hometown park.
What is/was your major? At what school? What is your goal for life after school using that major?
I am a marketing major at A-State [Arkansas State University]. I would love to work in sales. Working in that area was never of interest to me until interviewing Daniel Fedkenheuer at Dwindle and taking a sales class last semester. Building relationships with a person and their business through a company seems challenging and fulfilling as a career.
How has school and/or life been since receiving a scholarship from us? How did the scholarship help you on your journey?
The scholarship helped tremendously! I was able to not worry about costs of books and other supplies that I needed that particular semester. Any amount of stress relieved or weight lifted from your shoulders while working your way through school is amazing and deeply appreciated!
What have you enjoyed most during your COVID spread/Stay at Home time?
During the quarantine I have been listening to a lot of music and appreciating time alone listening to my records. And of course skating our local park while staying distanced and mindful has also helped keep my sanity!
Sleater-Kinney and Pearl Jam records on repeat.
What is something valuable you have learned during this time?
I think before the stay at home guidelines I took for granted tomorrow. We will beat it and things will get better; when that happens I will definitely take full advantage of now and make value in everyday.
How has skateboarding remained a role in your life?
Thankfully I have been able to skate everyday. Whether it’s flat ground in the parking lot in front of my apartment or getting to skate an empty park, it’s remained a prominent role and continues to help me have a clear, positive mind.
Two setups are always better than one!
What advice would you give to someone just starting their higher education path?
The advice I would give is to make the most out of your time at university! It is a very short and fast four years so making the right connections and relationships with your peers and advisors is important! They will help you develop clear goals and a straight path for a career when you graduate.
Who would you bring on your dream skate session and what would you be skating?
I would skate China Banks with Dennis Busenitz! Struggling to keep up!
Let's say the keyholder to your dream job is reading this right now. What is the job, and what do you want to say to them?
I would like to be the guy between the distributor and the shop selling boards and new products while building strong relationships with the business owners. I would say how much skating has changed my life as a kid and young adult and how I would love for it to continue to be apart of my life through my career!
