During college, I participated in several student internships, and was an active member of various student communication organizations. In these experiences, I demonstrated my ability to be a selfstarter by taking on more than what was asked of me. I am not afraid to ask questions when necessary, and am not resistant to learning from constructive criticism. I have a continuous thirst for knowledge, particularly in the communications industry. These experiences have not only forced me to exceed what I thought I was capable of, but also grown to achieve new skills and expertise. I believe these experiences have created a person who is comfortable trying new things, and willing to not only adapt and persevere through difficulty, but ultimately thrive in a work environment that is challenging.
