I believe…the only limits we have are the ones we set for ourselves, actions speak louder than words, and

where we are is where we need to be.

Who I am I was born and raised in Louisville, KY. Family and friends are very important to me. I am thankful for the education I received from Assumption High School.

I am a faithful fan to the University of Kentucky Wildcats. I love to travel, and enjoy spending time at the lake and beach. In my downtime I like to read magazines. I have a passion for advertising and a desire to grow in the profession.

Career Interests

Career Goals Open to relocating, or staying home!

Career Goals My goals for my career five years after graduation are to

be well-acclimated at an advertising agency and to have been promoted to a higher position in the media buying or account management field. I want to be in a city I enjoy living in, and making a decent salary that allows me to care for myself and my family. I also want to continuously carry out the goal of staying current with changes and trends in traditional and new media so that I can make the best decisions for my clients.
