I am a senior studying strategic communication at the E.W. Scripps School of
Journalism with a minor in political science in the College of Arts and Sciences
at Ohio University. I pride myself on being a seasoned communicator who
thrives in an environment where passion, creativity and curiosity are valued. I
have a deep-rooted passion for social justice, diversity, and the wide world of
influence, as well as a keen interest in relationship-building, in audience and in
measuring results.
