I am a Virginia Commonwealth University senior seeking a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. My focus is business and media studies. I have been a promoter for many years using various social media outlets for companies like Steez Promo and Badvss. My goal is to be a social media specialist. This summer I will be working with Trinity Lutheran Church helping with their social media outreach. When I'm not working or doing school work some of my favorite activities are going to music and art festivals, collecting dream catchers, and hanging out with my cat Mathematik.
From the beginning |
Where I am now |
I grew up in Leesburg, VA. Then moved down to Richmond, VA to begin my journey at Virginia Commonwealth University. I had no idea what I wanted to do in life. At first I contemplated being a physical therapist. After taking a biology class at the college level I realized that was not for me. I quickly switched into marketing knowing I'm a people person, and have worked in customer service for many years that would be a good fit. After a few years in the business school I decided I wanted more writing skills under my belt. That is when I joined the Interdisciplinary Studies program so that I could combine marketing and public relations in a way that would suit me.

I have tailored my degree to give me the necessary skills to begin my career in social media optimization and outreach. I have taken classes in media writing, graphic design, user experience, and marketing. This summer I will begin my internship with Trinity Lutheran Church helping them with their social media outreach. The first step in my career!
