Welcome to my world

Not so long ago I was your average 4th year university student - eating pasta three meals a day, sleeping till 2 p.m., and clueless about what I was going to do when I graduated with my ever-so-common B.A. At least that's how I told myself we all felt.

It wasn't until a friend told me that college application deadlines were looming that I really lit the proverbially fire under my butt. The choice was simple - more schooling or entering what I like to call the 'real world' filled with jobs, responsibilities, and bills. It was a no-brainer, much like I thought my last psych exam was going to be. Thankfully, this time I wasn't horribly mistaken.

I knew right away what my options were; advertising or public relations. Both had always interested me and both required minimal math skills. After a three day intensive researching/soul searching/pros and cons list making marathon I chose what was to become my future profession, Public Relations.

I enrolled in a post-graduate corporate communications and public relations program and the rest is history. Well, history in the making.

This blog, my first ever, will take you on my journey through the world of public relations - the good, the bad and everything in between. More specifically, my studies, volunteering, client projects, networking, events and everything else I've grown to love in PR. So sit back, relax and enjoy the ride as I tumble through the PR rabbit hole.
