I am a I am hard-working and creative marketing student-athlete at App State eager to start my career in business. I am passionate about building meaningful connections and I would love to build one with you!At a young age, I was fascinated with the business world. I would constantly make lemonade stands, sell crafts, and ask to accompany my parents to work. These small moments lit a larger passion inside me. I grew to love watching YouTube videos on how to create a business, and learned about wholesale, social media, marketing, advertising, graphic design and so much more. I began a small online clothing resale business and there I learned more about marketing and advertising. I love every aspect of business. Choosing my major in marketing was easy, and I have loved my classes so far. My experience as a Division I athlete has given me many skills, but my best qualities are my hard work and determination. My commitment to practice, games, travel, social life, family, and schoolwork has taught me skills like time management, teamwork, and effective communication. Additionally receiving corrections on my skills on the field and in the classroom has taught me how to effectively implement constructive criticism. I have 30+ hours this year in community service and was a captain of my softball team. I demonstrate great leadership and organization as I set and meet personal goals while also contributing to group tasks and objectives. I am excited to continue my education and learn from my experience as a student-athlete. I am looking to pursue a career in marketing, and I'd love to connect about future opportunities to aid in my growth as a professional and person!
