I am originally from Southern California, pursuing my degree in Marketing at the University of North Dakota, while also competing for the UND Softball team. I spent most of my childhood playing various sports and engaging in different mediums of creativity. I've learned a lot in my short time here. One thing being that, its important to find what your good at, and do it! I found that I have a passion for creative sports media, and I've been able to channel that passion here in Grand Forks. I have gained experience in photography, videography, graphic design, and overall marketing skills. I have also learned lessons in teamwork, planning and execution of marketing campaigns, and accountability. Currently, I hold a position with UND Insider, our athletics marketing team, as a media intern. Within that, I execute gameday photography mainly, with some videography and graphic design. I've learned what it takes to operate at the collegiate level, from the high expectations to the fast paced environment. I also hold a position with the Northern Plains UAS Test Site as a marketing intern, where I assist with social media planning/posting, internal communications, in person marketing events, and external communications. This position has given me many important lessons like working in a professional environment, problem solving, and public speaking. Not to mention the skills I've gained from being a collegiate athlete, learning how to manage my time, prioritize things, work through hard times, and many more. These skills are very valuable and transfer into life later on. I plan to pursue a role in creative sports media or general marketing after the conclusion of my education. Here is some of the work I've done so far, with much more to come!
