Transcript of My mcbs story
Before I started the MCBS Program I wasn’t really sure where I fit in or what my career would be. I had been
singing since I was little and I always thought I wanted to go into the music industry, as an artist.
life hit me hard and I needed to focus on how I was going to help my family pay bills. After a lot of hard word I landed a
job that opened a lot of doors for me.
I started to feel as if this might not have been the opportunity I thought it was. But then I happened to be in a presentation by Kathy Kraven about the MCBS program. It
was an extremely interesting presentation and initially I didn’t realize how much I was impacted.
As soon as the presentation was over someone walked over and said that they thought of me during the entire
presentation. Because of that I started to research the different avenues that would be available to me through the MCBS program. Financially it wasn’t something that I could
justify for myself, but it stood on the back of my mind. I learned that through my job I had the opportunity to
receive a scholarship as well as assistance for tuition.
I looked into it and made sure it was something I could handle financially. Finally there was a window of
opportunity that would have closed but I leaped and began my degree. The courses have taught me how to dig deeper into what the Media Communications Industry truly was.
Because of that I realized that there are so many different creative outlets that I could explore within the media
industry.
Because of the different options, I found myself relating to the industry and finding inspiration in my possible future.
There are so many different career opportunities that fit my personality and cater to my interests. I honestly never thought I would realize how a career could shape me
prepare me to become someone great.
Someone that will live up to their God given purpose. I pressed on and continued to pray that the road that I was
being led down would be revealed to me. I was reaching the end of my rope and began to believe that I had made a mistake. Until finally while taking the Overview of the
Visual Arts Industries I learned about Brand and Reputation Management.
What struck a cord with me was the fact that this career would play to my strengths and tie together everything that I have been through and
learned. I began to set goals and envision where I want to be in five years. After much prayer and consideration I developed a series of goals and plans that will all tie together and build my brand as a professional. And ever since I decided to pursue my passion for media and focus on
becoming the best Brand Rep and Image Consultant I can be.
