As an honors student at the Wilbur O. and Ann Powers College of Business at Clemson University, I've found immense value in the connection between concepts taught in class and their practical importance in the real world of marketing. Understanding consumer behavior and market analysis in an academic setting has provided me with a strong foundation to develop effective marketing strategies in my continuing role as a Digital Marketing Assistant. My academic journey continues to equip me in all areas of marketing, and I am excited to have the opportunity to continue to better myself academically, while working in my current professional role. People find me to be hardworking, driven and extremely personable. I have developed a strong ability to balance time management between my academic and professional workload while still making time for fun and personal interests. I enjoy building new relationships with my sisters in my sorority which has also provided me with the opportunity to mentor and to engage in volunteer work with the Ronald McDonald House.I am always seeking opportunities to advance both my skills and knowledge by connecting with like-minded individuals. The future of marketing excites me and I am eager to see how new emerging technologies will shape the industry.
