I am a sophomore in the Haslam College of Business at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville working toward a business degree in Marketing with a concentration in visual and digital marketing. I have always been a good communicator and my ability to quickly connect with others is one of my strengths. In my previous position, being people-oriented helped me to build relationships with customers and help lead others in the workplace. My instinct to observe and focusing on individualization is another strength of mine. I always consider other’s unique traits and strengths that can contribute to a productive team and workplace. Some of my business interests include how to cater to and attract people in different markets, understanding different trends in marketing, and understanding retail management. My experiences with communication, leadership, and planning have prepared me to pursue a career in marketing. For example, winning others over and making connections with people in a crowd allows me to speak up and take charge. My interest in planning and multitasking contribute to my ability to prioritize work tasks as well as get things done in an organized matter. My career goal after college is to work at a company centered around marketing to others needs and exploring new ways to do so.
