Biography
In 1994, I was born as the third and final child to my parents. Throughout my life, I have practiced a few typical traits of the youngest child: independent, polished and eager. In 2013, I left my small town outside Pittsburgh, Penn., and headed for Oklahoma City, Okla., for university. I have remained in the OKC area ever since, engaging in every opportunity available.
I am a graduate of Oklahoma Christian University and I hold a Bachelor of Science in Mass Communications/Public Relations. In the near future, I plan to pursue further education in the field of communication and one day would like to pursue careers in higher education and public policy. I am currently seeking fulfilling employment in communications and business.
Previously, I worked as a marketing intern for Chick-fil-A, metro marketing team leader for Whole Foods Market and communications coordinator for The Education and Employment Ministry. In college, I also worked at a student-run public relations firm in digital media and research, and led digital and social media efforts at a local marble and construction company as their director of digital communications.
I am well-versed in international affairs for my age. In addition to staying informed on current events, I have also traveled overseas to perform a medical mission in Nicaragua and to teach English in China. I also worked with a small team of students to create a business plan for a coffee shop that included securing international coffee bean suppliers.
I am impassioned towards finding truth in all its forms through academic research and cultural and philosophical exploration. My personal branding phrase, "Spirit Mender and Human Connector," exemplify my desire to help those around him, connect humans together, foster relationships and help people share their passions. My personal philosophies and Starbucks's mission statement, "To inspire and nurture the human spirit – one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time," inspired him to form this branding phrase. My earnest desire to serve, both as a professional but also as a member of society, exemplify my selflessness, dependability and ambition.
