half.

Talk about learning hardcore analytics…

Back last

Semester

I worked as a reporter for a hyper-local

blog called MicroMemphis.

I investigated stories from the community

and research them from social media tools

like twitter as well as walking around and

talking to people in the neighborhood.

I had two social media marketing internships:

1.) Social Media Marketing intern for a Log Home Mortgage Company

2.) PR Intern Young Avenue Sound, a local recording studio.

*Side note: I was also a teaching assistant for a broadcast journalism course, and founded a Social Media Club on campus

Then ended the semester with a 3.5 GPA.
