Columbus and the Valley magazine recently honored Columbus residents in their “5 under 40” and “Rising Stars” lists. Among the lists were several CSU alumni and faculty. Of the “5 under 40” honorees, two have ties to the Turner College of Business. Jessica Ferriter earned a master’s degree in organizational leadership (MSOL) from the Turner College in 2016 and has served on the CSU Alumni Association Board of Directors. Currently, she is the human resources director at Southeastern Cardiology Associates, PC. She holds both the Professional in Human Resources (PHR) and Associate Certified Coach (ACC) designations, and throughout her career, she has worked in corporate, government and military sectors. The other honoree, Cortney Laughlin Wilson, is a 2012 graduate of the Turner College’s MSOL program. In addition to serving as director of CSU’s William B. Turner Center for Servant Leadership, she has volunteered as past president of the CSU Alumni Association Board of Directors and is a previous chair and founder of the Young Alumni Council for the CSU Association. In addition to Ferriter and Wilson, three Turner College graduates were singled out as “Rising Stars” in the Chattahoochee Valley. Among these are Troy Jackson '11 of Synovus, Joel Lewis '07 of Joel C. Lewis CPA, and Scott Sullivan '11 of Bridgepath CFO Solutions. “Members of the Columbus State University family are known for solving real-world problems and discovering unexpected solutions,” Jennifer Joyner, a 2013 graduate of the Turner College’s MSOL program and CSU’s executive director of the CSU Alumni Association said. “We’re proud of our CSU Cougars who continue to provide better opportunities for others throughout the Chattahoochee Valley.” A panel of judges chose the “5 under 40” and “Rising Stars” based on their contributions in the areas of family, business, and community service.
