Name: Michael Paen Class Year: 2015 College Degree: Criminal Justice Current Location: Fayetteville, NC What was your first job out of college, and what is your current job (if they’re different)? My first job out of college was working for a catering company. My current job is a TACP in the United States Air Force. What do you miss most about Marist? Definitely seeing my friends everyday, and seeing the leaves change across from the Hudson. Tell us a little about your current job and how Marist prepared you for it. My current job requires a lot of time management and organization. Balancing football and classes at Marist definitely helped give me a leg up. What is your favorite part of your job now? The experiences and being able to do and learn things I would not have the opportunity to anywhere else. What’s the best part about life after college? The worst? The best part is not having to write papers, the worst is not seeing my friends. What’s one thing you wish someone had told you about postgrad life? What’s something surprising? I wish someone would have told me to take cooking classes in college. Its surprising how much I miss the library. Do you have anything you’d like to tell current seniors as they prepare to graduate? Enjoy every last minute, and participate as much as possible. What’s your dream job? Marine biologist

Michael Paen is a true hero. He captured the hearts of all the fans while he played football at Marist. Not just for his style of play, but because of the character and leadership qualities he displayed every day as an individual. The same qualities he uses today while serving our country. True to Mike's personality, he will be embarrassed if he ever reads this, but well deserving of these comments.

Mike is one of the finest young men I know. At St. Thomas Aquinas he was a leader and a great friend to my son. He is an asset to the armed forces as he will be with whatever road he chooses.
