Notable Alumni: Kareeda Chones-Aguam

A conversation with alumna Kareeda Chones-Aguam about being a Notable Alumni and how Marquette shaped her life and career

Kareeda Chones-Aguam was just named a 2021 Milwaukee BizTimes Notable Alumni.

Chones-Aguam graduated in 1998 from Marquette’s Diederich College of Communication.

Today she is the senior vice president of partner strategy and management for the Milwaukee Bucks and Fiserv Forum.

Here in a video interview, she talks about what it means to be a Notable Alumni, how Marquette shaped her life and career and how she has forged a path as a woman of color in a male-dominated industry.

Milwaukee BizTimes’ Notable Alumni Awards spotlight accomplished professionals in the region who make a difference in their workplace and the greater community, as well as the higher education institutions that attract and develop that talent.

Chones-Aguam also received Marquette’s Young Alumna of the Year Award in 2016.
