Alumni Spotlight: Marcia Zellers
Going Digital - A Unique AIESEC Career Path

Marcia Zellers rose from general member through the ranks at AIESEC at the University of Wisconsin - Madison and went on to become National Committee President from 1986-1987. Marcia felt very fortunate to see AIESEC through an increase in traineeships during a booming US economy.

In 2016 Marcia joined the AIESEC US board of directors. Due to her successful career in Digital Marketing and Media, she has been engaged to conduct a strategic review of AIESEC’s US operations. Marcia is currently interviewing both current and past AIESECers and analyzing AIESEC’s challenges and successes to help guide the future. She says, “It's been fascinating. More than I ever expected.” The recommendations will be presented to the MC and LCs for their review at Winter National Conference.
