Summary

Just a recent college grad in search of a job that will allow me to explore my interests and help me progress towards my chosen career in marketing. I received my Bachelors in Humanities with an emphasis on Creative Writing. I professionalized a literary magazine website's layout to help it gain more traction and attention from not only students, but local residents in the area. I studied abroad in Seoul Korea, which opened a door to many of my current interests and I presented on my experience. I want to seek and maintain a full-time position that offers professional challenges utilizing interpersonal skills, excellent time management and problem-solving skills.
