Why did you choose Daniels?

I chose Daniels for the outstanding faculty and how established the program is in the Denver area. Everyone knows and loves Daniels! As a Daniels student, I have the opportunity to connect with faculty who are always willing to support me in my academic and career goals.

Previous Education

BA in literature from Elon University

Pre-Grad School Experience

Prior to graduate school, I worked as a marketing admin for Tom’s Watch Bar. As an undergraduate, I was active in the English department at Elon University and volunteered at schools in North Carolina.

Post Grad School Goal

I have decided to pursue marketing as a means to combine my love for storytelling and advocating for others. With my degree, I hope to serve as a brand manager in the outdoor industry or with schools.

Hobbies

I love to climb, hike and ski. When I’m not outside, I’m probably on my couch with my cat, Evie, reading a book or making a playlist.
