I am a graduate student in the Master's of Mass Communications program at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, S.C. Originally from a rural town without a single stoplight, I decided to study public relations to learn how to communicate with new people and have the opportunity to see the world. My studies have taken me from Ireland to Budapest and back across the pond to Washington D.C. From those experiences, I have experience with  event planning, social media, print  writing, digital writing and community and media relations. As a student, I actively search for new places to explore and new causes to be passionate about.
