During my time in college (domestically at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Carolina and abroad at Radboud University in Nijmegen, The Netherlands), I developed the skills to be innovative, intuitive, strategical and eager to learn and try new things.

 

While in college, I worked on multiple industry analyses, research & reporting initiatives to derive market insights, built brand strategy & presented findings in a professional manner to key stakeholders. In addition, as an Advertising in Communications major, with a minor and focus in International Business, a significant portion of my collegiate growth has been centered around the development and strengthening of personal and professional relationships across a broad spectrum of engagement.

 

My collegiate career has also offered me with leadership opportunities through participation in organizations such as the Alpha Gamma Delta fraternity - Nu Alpha Chapter, the Lambda Pi Eta Honors Society, and the Collegiate DECA organization. By holding executive officer positions in these organizations, I strengthened and developed skills in planning, organization, promotion, and management. 

 

As I begin my professional career, I have gained important experience within the Digital Marketing field by working as the Email Marketing Specialist at VELUX America in Fort Mill, South Carolina. During my time at VELUX, I have captured and perfected skills within specific categories such as Email Marketing, Content Writing, and have become certified in the HubSpot marketing software. I've also strengthened my design skills by gaining experience with the Adobe Creative Suite (specifically Photoshop), as well as formulated a better understanding of what happens within the marketing and advertising industries.
