Senior / Broadcast Journalism
As a broadcast journalism major minoring in business, Spanish, and Korean, I love experiences that allow me to harness my innate curiosity in new and challenging ways. Throughout my junior year of college, I’ve had the experience of producing radio shows, filming and editing TV segments, and interacting with people across a variety of backgrounds.
As the time grows near for me to graduate, I would love to channel my drive in the field of entertainment public relations and social media in California, but I am open to working absolutely anywhere and everywhere.
