A Bit About Me
I maximize my fresh perspective as a recent college graduate from Texas A&M University’s Mays Business School. Currently, as a graduate student in the Moody College of Communication, I am expanding my skills and gaining industry experience. Through my many travels and moves both in the United States and abroad, I have gained vast experiences acclimating to new environments and conquering difficult obstacles. I do not know the meaning of “settling”. I will always search out and create the best there is to offer. I coordinate efficiently across departments, successfully facilitate projects, and excel in adapting to unexpected challenges. With quality at the forefront of my mind, I am able to capture every minuscule detail to ensure the finest standard. My motivation to seek new knowledge and passion for innovation equips myself with the skills to execute calculated and essential plans of action. I view the world as my teacher and continue to learn across all mediums: public relations, entrepreneurship, music, hiking, sports, and the importance of clarity in concise communication.
