My name is Grace Dodd and I am a junior at Southern Illinois University, working towards a bachelors degree with a major in Advertising and a minor in Marketing. I would describe myself as carefree, outgoing, ambitious, and responsible. I love moving my body, being outside in nature, going on adventures, and spending time with the people who mean most to me. I am eager to pursue a career in Advertising and Marketing, in hopes of also owning my own businesses and charities one day. I am set to graduate in May of 2024. I am currently a part of SIU’s Student-Run Advertising Agency called Adlab which I really enjoy and also am a part of the American Advertising Association. Through Adlab, I co-run the social media for their account Quatros Deep Dish Pizza and am on their research team for their National Student Advertising Competition in April. Right now I am interested in learning more in Adlab, working for their competition this spring, and succeeding in my courses.
