"I’m a Colorado native from the small town of Limon. I like the corporate side of public relations but I would like to start out in a PR firm for the experience and to see it from both angles. I’ve learned and gained experience from PRSSA more than what I would have from a classroom. PRSSA is a great way to start your pre-professional career." |

I grew up in Centennial, Colorado (a city just south of Denver). I am interested in working in the fields of crisis communication and reputation management. PRSSA and RamPR are fantastic and easy ways for students to get career advice from professionals and experience working on real campaigns. They also provide valuable networking opportunities that can help you get a job right out of college. |

I’m graduating in December and can't wait to get into the “real world” to apply all the skills I have learned from PRSSA and RamPR. I am currently the public relations manager for Sustainable Schools International, a non-profit organization that builds and sustains schools in Cambodia. Last semester I was an intern for Milena-Distinctive Image Consulting, a personal styling company. My dream job would be to live in LA or NYC working for a fashion magazine’s public relations department as an event planner.

My desired career is to work in PR and to find a way to apply it to one of my passions - riding and showing horses, health and fitness, or working with children. Even better if I could find a way to merge all of those things into one career! I believe I'll do my best work if it's something I care about.
PRSSA has been an extremely valuable addition to my resume. Not only has it allowed me to meet my peers at CSU and PR professionals, but it has helped me learn about the world of PR and what it takes to stay current and market yourself upon graduation. PRSSA has provided many amazing opportunities to network, participate in events and further my knowledge of the industry. I didn't change my major to PR until AFTER joining PRSSA, and I feel that my experience in the organization is truly what led me to choose the educational and career path that I have. |
