EDUCATION

I have a Bachelor of Business Administration in Digital Marketing from Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. While I graduated summa cum laude, I am most proud of my Honors Research Medallion.


As an honors student at NSU, I worked on a qualitative two-year research project with Dr. John Shapiro titled 'Multi-Generational Influence of Political Advertising on Social Media'. The research project looked into different perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors of individuals regarding political ads and how their age shapes these factors. 


I knew that before stepping fully into the workforce, I wanted to continue my studies. While studying marketing, I fell in love with advertising. Advertising perfectly combined my love of facts and statistics with innovation and creativity. What fascinated me most about the industry is that, while it will never be a profession that changes the world, it does have the power to change how we see the world.


That passion brought me to the Univeristy of Texas at Austin, the #1 Advertising Program in the Nation, where I am currently pursuing a Master's degree with a focus on advertising insights and analytics.
