Welcome.


Welcome to my blog! I am so glad that you have decided to check it out.

My journey of Public Relations started a little over three years ago and I am so glad I was pushed in that direction.  I had absolutely not idea what I wanted to do, I just had a list of things I really liked to do.  I was originally a business major, a business major that didn't really like theories or math for that matter.  Let's be honest I was completely miserable.  I had a meeting with my advisor and I was telling him all of these things and I was also telling him that I loved to write, proof things and talk to people.  Oh, and did I mention that I really needed to declare a major? He suggested Public Relations, I took my first class and I never looked back.  I am so thrilled with my decision.

I hope someday to use my Public Relations degree in the non-profit field, specifically a church.  I hope someday to become a Communications Director for a church or a ministry coordinator that helps with the communication and organizations of specific ministries in a church.  Right now I help with a lot of communications aspects of the youth ministry at the church I am a part of.  I run all the social media for their high school ministry called, DRIVEN as well as running DRIVEN's website.

I look forward to journeying through the end of my Public Relations schooling and the beginning of my Public Relations (or communications) career in the big bad real world!
