USAPEECs Tyler Focuses On Teamwork

摘要

Greg Tyler, vice president of marketing for Stone Mountain, Georgia-based USA Poultry & Egg Export Council (USAPEEC), got his feet wet in the exporting industry while working on his masters degree at the Athens-based University of Georgia (UGA). "Oneof my professors, Dr. Glenn Ames, suggested that I do an internship with USDA's [United States Department of Agriculture] Foreign Agricultural Service [FAS] in Washington, D.C.," he explains. Following that advice,Tyler took six months off from his graduate work to work for FAS covering dairy poultry programs and issues. The internship served as a springboard into a full-time position with FAS, where Tyler worked for three-and-a-half years in international marketing before joining USAPEEC.
