Summary

As a senior marketing student at the University of Illinois-Chicago, I, Arturo Aiden Hernandez, specialize in Digital Marketing and Promotions with a minor in Business Analytics. Anticipating graduation in May 2025, I have honed my skills in understanding consumer behavior, content writing, and internal/external communications. This past summer, I was a Communications Intern at Brightpoint in Chicago, Illinois, where I have successfully published newsletters, standardized statewide social media communication strategies, and supported company-wide communication requests with meticulous attention to brand guidelines. My past work experiences in kitchen environments have instilled a strong work ethic and a positive attitude, even in challenging situations. Additionally, I launched my blog, "The Kid and The World," in February 2024, sharing my insights on marketing. I am also in the process of writing a book titled "If I Could Tell You One Thing Before The Rest of My Life" and aspire to contribute to professional journals or blogs in my career. I thrive in creative, teamwork-oriented environments and am passionate about achieving goals that benefit the community.
