Name: Becca Neu
Current Job/Title: Project Estimator at Neuco & Associates, Inc.
Years at Texas: 2011-2015
Degree: B.S. Advertising
Role/Responsibilities with Texas WBB: Student/Graduate Manager. Coordinated mail outs for recruits and other communication efforts to promote the program. Created graphics to be disseminated through our social media, highlighting our players and other program achievements. Managed scheduling and responsibilities for undergraduate managers. Packed equipment and gear for away games. Assisted camp director with summer camps, including all of the camp promotional materials. 
Most important thing you learned during your time with Texas WBB: It's the little things that we do consistently every day that matter. As a student manager, we always paid attention to detail. No one notices when a jersey is steamed to perfection, but they do notice when there are wrinkles.
Favorite motto/quote: You can't be perfect all the time, but you can give perfect effort every day.
Professional goals: To be among the few women who own a construction business in Dallas.
Where you hope to be in five years: I hope to be in a position where I can promote other powerful women in business.
Favorite memory of being a manager: I made a pretty big mistake on a mail out one day. Expecting to be ridiculed for it, I was completely surprised when (in front of our entire staff) Coach Aston assured me that it was "okay" and that she would always have my back. I spent years sending mail to the recruiting class that included Ariel Atkins and Brooke McCarty. Once they arrived on campus and got to work, I couldn't help but feel proud that I was a (albeit small) part of bringing them to the 40 Acres. Other than that, I'd say getting to be a part of the program from the day Coach Aston and company arrived on campus makes me very proud! Can't wait to watch this program continue to reach new milestones!
