INFORMATIONAL INTERVIEW
Introduction
One of the people I had an informational interview with on Wednesday was Dawn Ryburn. She works for the electronics imaging company RICOH as a director of programs and communications. As I intend upon trying to use digital resources and online spaces to better connect with viewers and clients, her presentation was of great importance to me.

Five Original Questions
What originally interested you towards your career?
Were you ever interested by other passions or careers, and why did you choose the way you did?
What's the greatest accomplishment you've achieved during your career?
What is the average day of your job like?
What motivates you to do your best work with your job?
​
Overview
Ryburn stressed the importance of managing and keeping track of time throughout the day, as it is very crucial to getting all of one's jobs done in an efficient manner. When it comes to networking and working with large audiences, everyday is special in its own way. While each day will probably have a similar format, one has to be able to handle dealing with new people and new situations on a daily basis. The last tip that she gave was that it is often good to try and take unique ways, even if there is a degree of risk to them, as they can often yield very remarkable and beneficial results.
