Experience
2023 - Present
Social Media Manager
& Lead Preschool Teacher
Green Bean Day School
Chicago, IL
As I worked towards my degree in Communications in Media, I was also teaching a preschool classroom full-time! This taught me lots of transferable skills, including but not limited to quick thinking in fast paced environments, time management, and team communication. After graduating with my degree, I took on the role of Social Media Manager. During this time, I filmed footage promoting the school, improved SEO, and enhanced engagement by 40% in my first two weeks!
2024 - 2025
Intern
Communications Quarterly at National Louis University
Chicago, IL
My internships for Communications Quarterly Magazine really reignited my spark for writing- something that I have carried with me all my life, but never considered I could bring it into my career until this experience. While most students only take one internship course for their requirements to graduate, I took three courses with the magazine and added to my workload because I enjoyed the writing so much! My writing explored different themes of the magazine such as imagination, voice, and life.
2023 - Present
Social Media Manager
@maisietourupdates
I started @maisietourupdates in April 2023 for one of my favorite artist, Maisie Peters. I wanted to create a space for people who wanted to keep up with her tours and maybe could not attend, finding people at each show to post and keep everyone in the loop. I track down clips of her performances as well as photographers at her show to showcase on the page. I now track 200k impressions on the page monthly, and have made friends all over the world!
Education
2023- 2025
Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Media
National Louis University
Chicago, Illinois
My Bachelor's degree is something I am particularly proud of- it took many years of hard work! I studied at Northern Illinois University before finding National Louis University as a place that I could work full time while taking classes. It was challenging to take on this workload, but I was determined and persistent to earn my degree. Studying in a field that I am genuinely interested in, however, made it all worth it. Walking across the stage was so much sweeter knowing how much work I had put into it all!
2018 - 2020
Associate in Arts
Elgin Community College
Elgin, Illinois
Although the pandemic affected my college courses while earning my Associates, I did not let that stop me. I worked through those online classes day by day, even filming a dance final in home! During this time, I took a variety of creative classes, ranging from ceramics to creative writing.
