Viking Connections: Matthew Mistretta
Matthew Mistretta is vice president of sales for Kinetic Data Solutions, a start-up company in the marketing and advertising space.
"I have a true passion for wanting to give back in any way I can to Augustana. This school provided me so much and I am grateful for where I am at today because of it. With that said, if I can make a positive impact on a current or prospective student to help shape their four years at Augie, I would be honored to do so.
My experience spans the marketing/advertising world which is extremely competitive and a popular avenue for many business graduates. I bring a wealth of experience in negotiating, strategic planning, consulting and a wide understanding of the entire Advertising ecosystem. I'd like to help provide perspective to these students on their options in the business/advertising world and arm them with the knowledge needed to help secure the right career start coming out of Augie."
