Based in Chicago, Illinois

​

How I got here

“Wherever you go, be a light in this world.” That's my mantra. It's based on my life experiences and religious beliefs. I strive to positively affect every person or place I engage with.

 

I discovered my passion for interpersonal relationships, videography, and competition in high school. An influential teacher and broadcasting class grew my filming and editing skills. This fast-paced class developed my desire to improve.

 

Broadcasting class sparked my interest in a Communications major. I later chose marketing to combine my competitive nature, love of videography, and desire to build relationships. To strengthen my background I declared a Business major as well. In these disciplines, I will be "a light in this world."

 

Where I am

My liberal arts education helped shape who I am. At Hope, I've made infinitely valuable connections with professors, peers, faculty, and community members. My resume lists the details. Here are three fun facts not included on that list:

  • I play the piano to de-stress.

  • I think philosophy is entertaining.

  • I love learning about people and their perspectives on prominent world issues.

​

Where I hope to be

I am currently pursuing a job the field of marketing or advertising. I hope to work for an organization where I can use my interpersonal skills, my work ethic, and my passion for content creation to achieve the company’s goals. I'd love to meet some great people along the way.

 

Owning my own consulting firm is my future career goal. My company would work with advocacy groups to promote issues like equality and environmental conservation.
