ORLANDO – Brand Advance, an Internet marketing and web-design business, has named Alexandra Gramatikas?a world traveler who had backpacked through 15 countries by the time she was 18 and reached the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro when she was 20?as an account executive with its marketing team.
Gramatikas, a recent Florida State University graduate, majored in international affairs and minored in business with an emphasis in marketing. During her time at FSU, the Dean’s-list student and Zeta Tau Alpha leader gained valuable experience heading up marketing efforts that helped raise more than $400,000 for the Children’s Miracle Network and $50,000 for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
Her accomplishments, which also include a Best in Show ribbon from the Maitland Art Festival and a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, are not limited to the college campus, says Brand Advance Chief Operations Officer Robert Urban.
“Alexandra’s strong will, devotion and determination knows no boundaries, as is evidenced by her numerous life experiences,” Urban said.
“Her accomplishments at such a young age–backpacking through Third-World countries, scuba diving in more than 100 of the world’s most exotic waters, and hiking through jungles to count monkeys for an Amazonian research center–are indicative of a positive attitude and a strong work ethic that can only complement Brand Advance’s free-spirited team,” he said.
