About

Marketing & Communications senior with an interest in recruiting, talent acquisition, and people-focused roles. I'm a senior at the University of Tennessee graduating in May 2026 with a focus on Marketing & Communications and a strong interest in talent acquisition and human resources. Through my academic work and leadership experience, I've developed skills in relationship building, communication, event coordination, and project organization. I'm particularly interested in roles where I can support teams through recruiting, candidate experience, marketing communications or event and project coordination. I'm currently seeking entry-level opportunities in marketing, communications, recruiting, or HR where I can contribute to a collaborative team while continuing to grow professionally. Open to relocating for the right opportunity. I'm always open to connecting with professionals in marketing communications, and talent acquisition.
