Ever since I was a child, I always indulged myself with the use of social media and technology. I would strive to figure out new ways to spread my ideas and get my thoughts out in the open.

When I was twelve years old, parents got divorced and my Father remarried to  my Step-Mother Dana, who is a successful Communications Director for a company called Devacurl. This company was  small and unknown when Dana first started working there, however it began to grow exponentially from the use of social media. I noticed from the start how much she loved her career, and I started to  ask questions regarding how the company grew so fast and her answer always was “all because of the use of social media.” This answer inspired me to think about a future within communications. I paid more attention to the use of social media through the large online circle and decided that I want to grow companies to their fullest potential with the use of social media, especially Instagram, twitter, snapchat, and so on. The communications world that Dana brought to my knowledge contributed to my understanding that it is overwhelming yet stimulating.

I believe writing is one of my strong suits; and after my first internship with a small PR company located in Westchester, NY I realized that I want to work with social media to spread horizons. I value the sharing of ideas and want to help companies spread their own concepts and interests.
