I graduated from Georgia Southern University in December 2020, with a degree in Writing & Linguistics. Speaking in the broadest of terms, I want to use my communication skills to tell stories and find new and exciting ways to connect with audiences. In my opinion, there are so many opportunities for growth, connection and enlightenment that are missed because of ineffective communication. I want to change that. “Storytelling” can take a myriad of forms, including: script writing, content creation, marketing and/or writing grants to bring attention to worthwhile causes. Additionally, if given the opportunity I would be keen on improving communications within a business. The better the understanding between employees, the better the ability to satisfy customers/users. In the same vein, I very much enjoy working collaboratively and learning from a team. When you can create positive experiences for others, as well as yourself, and see something bigger than just you come to fruition, that’s a great feeling. One that I hope to experience more as I grow in my career.As I alluded to in the first two paragraphs, my areas of interest include: marketing, social media management/content creation, journalism, technical writing and nonprofit writing. My degree and internships/volunteer opportunities provided me with experience in these areas.I am proficient in Microsoft Office, Google software and have experience with HTML5/CSS. I also have a working knowledge of graphic design software (Canva, Adobe Spark, and Photoshop). I’m very open to learning new skills.
