Stephanie Van Doorn-Kazyak became a professional communicator thanks to an unexpected part as a movie extra.
“It was the summer after my third year in college, I needed to figure out what I needed to do with my life and career” said Van Doorn-Kazyak. “That summer there was a movie being filmed in my hometown with Barry Sanders and Kurt Russel.”

Already a student at Michigan State University, Stephanie joined the College of Communication Arts & Sciences as a communication major and never looked back.
