Ambitious Communication Specialist and student at Young Harris College. While in school I worked full-time as a journalist for the Towns County Herald a weekly printed newspaper in the North Georgia Mountains. Being a journalist has allowed me to interview people from all walks of life. I have a proven project management and content creation skills, as well as photography skills. At the Towns County Herald, produced seven to eight articles a week and met 100% of deadlines for two years. As a journalist with the Towns County Herald, I was responsible for finding newsworthy content, building relations with contacts as well as overseeing all social media channels. My time in Young Harris as a student and journalist has been a once in a lifetime opportunity for me, which has allowed me to find my passion and career in life. As a journalist, I have developed strong writing and verbal communications skills, but as a communication specialist, I want to expand my knowledge and take on bigger challenges that will allow me to advance in my career. I am passionate about the media communications field, and I am dedicated to learning and gaining experiences that will help me to jumpstart a career in marketing, public relations, editing and copy.
