Where I’ve been: I am from Johns Creek, Georgia and made my way out west to the University of Texas at Austin where I earned my undergraduate degree in Business and Communications. I came to UT knowing nobody and quickly found a community within the 40 Acres. During my undergrad years, I was very involved in The Guides of Texas organization where I was a Tour Guide and Student Ambassador. I also founded my own student organization on campus and was involved in my sorority. Additionally, I held two internships one at Austin FC (the MLS team) and one at HEB.

Where I am: Through my experiences at UT, I found that my passions lie in branding and marketing. As the business landscape is shifting towards a highly data driven and analytical direction, I wanted to be able to put my best foot forward as I enter the working world. I applied to earn my Masters of Marketing through the McCombs School of Business at UT. So far, it has been challenging in the best possible ways as I have been adding STEM skills to my creative side. Click here to learn more about the MSM degree.
Where I am headed: I am excited to be entering the workforce in May of 2023. I am confident I can adapt into many roles under the business umbrella, but I am specifically interested in a role in Branding, Product Management and Product Marketing Management. I always appreciate informational calls to further develop my understanding of the business community and industries.

What is an MSM Degree?
An MSM degree is a specialized degree in quantitative and qualitative marketing. Different from an MBA, this degree offers a more specific and deeper dive into the field of Marketing and keeps up with the ever-changing evolution of Marketing. As an MSM student, 34 out of my 37 credits are dedicated to coursework such as: Marketing Analytics, Consumer Behavior, Strategy, Product and Brand Management.
The MSM program at the McCombs School of Business is ranked the #2 MSM program in the United States and #4 worldwide.
