Bachelor’s Degree
USC Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism
I’m a senior at the University of Southern California, majoring in Communication at the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism with a minor in Marketing at the Marshall School of Business. My coursework has given me a well-rounded foundation in communication theory, PR strategy, brand storytelling, and consumer marketing. Beyond this, I’ve taken several courses to deepen my understanding of Los Angeles’s rich history and vibrant culture. Always eager to try something new, I’ve enjoyed stepping outside of my major through fun electives like Sailing, Ping Pong, and Golf. I’m excited to continue deepening my knowledge of the dynamic field of public relations through my progressive master’s degree in Public Relations & Advertising, which I’ll complete in Spring 2026.
study abroad
London
In the spring of my junior year, I had the incredible opportunity to study abroad in London through Annenberg’s Accent Global Learning program. This experience not only deepened my appreciation for diverse cultures but also strengthened my communication skills. I was fully immersed in British culture and history, taking courses such as The Rhetoric of London, Interpreting Pop Culture, Communication and Social Change, and Gender and Media Studies. Beyond the classroom, I’m especially grateful to have traveled to nine different countries where I tried new foods, experienced different cultures firsthand, and learned to navigate a variety of public transit systems along the way.
NYC Maymester
Last May, I had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to partake in Annenberg’s NYC Maymester program. On our two-week trip, my cohort had the privilege of visiting some of the nation’s most esteemed communications, PR, and media companies.
Companies included Day One Agency, Edelman, Sony, Publicis Groupe, National Basketball Association (NBA), Good Morning America, ABC News, Bloomberg, Spotify, Jennifer Fisher Jewelry, TikTok, FGS Global, CBS News, Moda Operandi, Inc, Salesforce, and The New York Times.
At each of these companies, we gained invaluable knowledge from panelists who provided us direct insight into the company’s business, its culture, and into the state of the media industry today. On this trip, along with many other new skills, I gained the courage to ask company leaders about their vision for the future of the ever-evolving media landscape.
