Education

  • Fairfield University Graphic

    Fairfield University

    After completing my post-graduate educational experience, I found that while it is tough to juggle a full-time job and an almost-full-time college course load, you can succeed in going back to school at any stage of life. You just need to work hard, stay focused and very organized, and keep your eyes on the end goal.

  • Activities and Societies: Alpha Sigma Lambda National Honor Society, Delta Epsilon Sigma National Honor Society

    Nurtured my long-time love of reading and writing while studying as an English major. Proud to have earned my degree with honors as a nontraditional student juggling classes and a full-time job.

  • Activities and Societies: Spent two semesters as a producer, editor, and on-air talent for the Media Department's video magazine which aired over Public Access television.

    Began my interest in all things media while earning my associate degree. Completed my studies with honors as a nontraditional student working days and going to class in the evenings.

  • Accepted into MSA program ranked #8 in the nation. Completed 21 of 30 credits before deciding to change my career path.
