I recently earned my Master’s in Southern Studies at the University of Mississippi, where I researched the relationship between the South and the media, specifically representations of intersectional and marginalized southern identities. I have an undergraduate background in journalism, advertising, branding, marketing, visual communications, and consumer behavior. I have exceptional writing and research abilities, 10+ years of design experience, and an impressive aptness for trend forecasting. I also possess strong skills in analysis, critical and divergent thinking, creative problem solving, and interpersonal communication.
