About Me
I am a senior at The University of Alabama in Huntsville, graduating in May 2026 with my B.A. Communication Arts and Psychology. As a Communications & Marketing Assistant at The Scout Guide Huntsville, I combine my passion for digital media strategy and creative storytelling to support multi-platform campaigns and create content that builds relationships between the Huntsville community and small business owners. I am eager to continue growing my skills as I pursue a career in advertising, public relations, marketing or brand management.
In my free time, I enjoy playing piano, spending time with my cats, reading and practicing yoga. I'm a fan of Dolly Parton and all things pink. You can often find me exploring Huntsville's newest food and drink spots or planning my next travel adventure. Next on my list is Italy and Greece!
