Welcome to the #DragonFamily: Jared Bledsoe

Meet MSUM’s newest admissions representative, Jared Bledsoe. Being a student once himself, Jared looks forward to helping others find their passions at MSUM!

Start date: September 23, 2019

Q: What drew you to MSUM?
A: I have family in the area and they spoke highly of MSUM. Joining MSUM seemed right from a family standpoint, and I’m happy I decided to come here.

Q: What is one thing that surprised you about MSUM?
A: It’s family-like atmosphere. The culture here is very welcoming and forward-thinking. Coming to admissions, I wanted to be more of an ambassador for the university.

Q: What energizes you at work?
A: All of the energy in our office. All of us have gifts, and we all feed off that positive energy. The people here want to take their passions to the next level and to use the opportunity to serve and help others. That’s what I want to do, and it’s very motivating.

Q: What is something – big or small – you’re really good at?
A: I’m a former student-athlete in basketball. I think I am pretty good. I played professionally for five years in China and Saudi Arabia.

Q: If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?
A: I would love to go back to Europe. I’ve only been to the airport for a couple of hours in Germany. Although, I would like to hit up every country on the train over there. I love observing different cultures.

We are happy you are a part of the #DragonFamily, Jared!
