I am a student at the University of Minnesota studying Strategic Communications Journalism, Learning Technologies, and (potentially) Health Psychology. I am a book and advertising nerd. I love learning about new technologies, how they impact our everyday life, and how we can use them to our own advantages and help us succeed in the future. This also ties into my love of advertising and learning how advertisers and their advertisements use social media to learn more about their customers and how to best market to them. Aside from school, I am passionate about my two dogs–Rico and Freya–my 3-year-old nephew, and writing.
