About

I'm a 2015 graduate from Appalachian State University with a B.S. in Communication Public Relations, and currently pursuing a Masters degree in Emerging Media. Professionally, I am interested in marketing, event planning, and using social media /digital marketing to progress a school or business. I hope to use my passions in life to create a successful career for myself.
In my free time, you can find me planning my next travel opportunity, hanging out with my Labrador Retriever Finn, reading, singing on the worship team at church, or volunteering as a youth group leader.
