After college, I hope to pursue my dream of working for an international agency and
traveling around the world. I have worked accounts with international clients to
provide creative insight to improve their relations. One day I hope to work in
an agency dedicated to partnering with clients globally. I believe this dream will
diversify my skills and network in the future.
Interests: My hobbies include photography and marketing for small businesses and
clients. I find happiness in providing creative insight to bring solutions to businesses
and clients in need. Especially due to the COVID-19 virus, many businesses have
closed. I have found enjoyment in providing assistance to improve online communication
with their audience. For the 2020-2021 school year, I will be the president of
the WVU Media Coalition to work with outreach for all independent and dependent
student organizations under the Reed College of Media. I will continue as the Digital
Media Director for WVU PRSSA, return as the Event Planning Chair for TEDxWVU, and
be a part of the Media Team for the Mountaineer Maniacs.

I am currently in my dream job: leading a team of talented communications and marketing
professionals at a terrific university. I hope that I can continue to do a job
that I love using the skills I have gained over my career and from my time in the
IMC program at WVU. I would love to retire early and do consulting at some point
-- with flexibility to live anywhere in the country.
Interests: When I'm not at work, I prefer to be outdoors, ideally hiking or reading
on the deck, or engaging in one of my creative outlets: photography, painting,
sewing, and writing.

I recently began a new career within an incredible company. I hope to spend a few
years at Cardinal Health and grow with the company, with the goals of learning
new skills and becoming a more well-rounded communicator. However, long-term I
aspire to become a professor. I have a unique background including television news,
public affairs, public health, and now corporate communications. I am extremely
passionate about learning and education, and I would love to bring what I have
learned through my experiences to help students fulfill their career goals.

It’s really exciting to create content for a brand from blogs, social media, marketing
campaigns, to internal communication documents. My IMC degree really prepared me
to wear a lot of different hats. For other career aspirations, I do hope to publish
a nonfiction novel at some point in my life. Finger’s crossed I believe in myself
long enough to sit down and write more than three chapters.
Interests: I am currently really interested in cooking, taking long walks, and
reading rom-coms.
