Deja Murray Email & Phone Number

I am a second-year Civil Engineering student at the University of Central Florida with a passion for structural design. My love for structures began when I was a small child and would play with Legos. When I was younger, I would get really excited about constructing Lego sets, especially the intricate sets that were modeled after actual buildings. I can still remember constantly thinking to myself as a child how amazing it would be to be able to design these same structures that I was building in my home. It was actually this thought that inspired my long-term goal of being structural designer, which eventually led me to UCF to pursue a Civil Engineering degree. In addition to majoring in Civil Engineering, I am minoring in both Spanish and Marketing. After beginning to learn Spanish in 2018, I chose to continue my studies in this language to further my proficiency in the language. Eventually, I hope to become fluent in Spanish and be able to utilize this language in my workplace. As for Marketing, I particularly interested in digital marketing design. During my time at UCF, I have become the Social Meda Manager for an organization known as SWISE (Society of Women in Space Exploration). In this role, I create and publish individualized content for all of the social media accounts for SWISE, as well a manage these accounts. I have really enjoyed the work that I do for this club, and it has inspired my interest in digital marketing design. My work with this organization has allowed me to further develop my leadership and organizational skills, as well as my ability to design engaging content that captivates and retains our audience. I am eager to increase my professional engineering experience through internships. Ideally, I hope to use and apply my Spanish language skills to the internship position, if applicable. I am also interested in expanding my digital marketing design experience through an internship, particularly in a role that allows me to curate social media content for a company or brand. Overall, I am known not only for the leadership and organizational skills listed above, but also for my dedication for achieving academic and professional excellence.
