If you thrive on interacting with people, wonderful鈥攚e have professional selling and consumer behavior/insights. Perhaps you are an outstanding writer鈥攚e have public relations and content marketing. If you are artistic and creative, we have advertising with an emphasis on graphic design or audio/visual production. And if you enjoy working with the internet and social media, we have digital marketing,” he explains.
Vollmert strives to make a difference in the lives of his students. “I firmly believe that only through God’s Grace did I come to NPU, and I am privileged to join my students on their academic and life journeys. In my time here, I’ve heard it often said that being a faculty member at 草莓影视 is not a job but a calling. I couldn’t agree more.”

As the NCAA Faculty Athletics Representative for NPU, Vollmert is a liaison between athletics and academics to create a supportive environment that enhances the academic and athletic experiences of NPU’s student-athletes.
“Student-athletes are integral to the success of most colleges and universities. I greatly respect the leaders, coaches, and staff of the Division of Athletics for their unwavering commitment to helping our student-athletes become the best version of themselves, whether in their sports, academics, or lives. I’m truly grateful to be one small cog in the wheel.”, he states.
Furthermore, he shares, “I often say that being a student-athlete is equivalent to working a full-time job, but with no pay. Balancing the demands of academics and athletics is very challenging. I’m nothing short of amazed at our student-athletes’ commitment, drive, and effort, and I welcome any opportunity to assist them in their efforts.”
