RssMarketing specialist looking for a program managment opportunity in Denver

As a recent college graduate from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I am looking to start my career in program/project management. I would like to join a company that treats its employees with respect and one that offers internal room for advancement. It is my desire to obtain a position where I can work closely with other individuals to develop and complete project strategies. I enjoy working with event planning, marketing, advertising, promotions, the web, and travel. Because I enjoy exploring the world, my ideal occupation would be to work with a company such as Travelzoo, which would give me the opportunity to research travel deals and broadcast them across the web (though I am not looking for a job that requires more than 10% travel). I also enjoy working in human resources and may be interested in becoming a recruiter, but I do not have any prior experience. Currently I live in Madison, Wisconsin, but I would like to settle down in the Denver, Colorado area.
