Hello! Since I was young, I always found myself being wary of my actions and words around my peers. As I would tell my mom “You don’t know what other people are going through”. As I got older, I learned this to be truer than ever.
Advocating for suicide prevention is something very crucial to me and something I believe we, as humans, just don’t do enough. So when I was tasked with coming up with a capstone project, I was immediately intrigued in producing an event on campus that could benefit our Arcadia community.
As a Senior Media and Communications major with a concentration in Public Relations at Arcadia University, I’ve had the opportunity to plan many events. I learned it is a passion of mine, and something I hope to continue to do in my professional future.
At Arcadia University, I am the Co-Director of 1853 Communications, a student-run public relations firm on campus, as well as the PRSSA chapter, and the Treasurer of the Cabaret club. As an active member in the Arcadia community, I learn more and more every day about the communications industry. I am excited to take you on this journey with me!
Welcome to my capstone page!
