I received my bachelor\u2019s degree in May 2016 from University of Kentucky in Communications. I left University of Kentucky with dreams bigger than ever but no real concrete plan of accomplishing them. I originally was in the Television\/Management Grad Program at Boston University; however, I realize really quick the program was not for me. I switched to Media Ventures half way through the semester because I believed (and now know) it would be a better fit for me. I\u2019ve always had an entrepreneurial and innovative spirit within me. I am going to start a company when I finish this program that will positively impact the world and eventually change the world for the better. I see the Media Ventures program as a way to really sharpen my focus and learn how to build a concrete plan to accomplish my aspirations.<\/p>\n
I am actually in the process of rebranding my original thesis project. I was originally creating a way for people to share their stories and creative works with the world. I hit so many roadblocks with that so I\u2019m working on something new. The challenging aspect goes hand in hand with the fun aspect. I love how my thesis project is challenging me to come up with new ideas.<\/p>\n
I have so many hobbies. I would say my main two would have to be love and fitness. You must be wondering: How is love a hobby? Love is the greatest thing on the planet and an important foundation to my life. I try to spread love through positive vibes, vibrations, and energy. You never know who\u2019s close to their breaking point so I will always try to do what I can to make someone\u2019s day better. I\u2019m also a huge fitness fanatic. I love going to the gym, eating healthy, and playing basketball.<\/p>\n
The best advice for future applicants I can give is trust the process. No matter where you are in your life, own it. I\u2019m a firm believer everything happens for a reason and what you\u2019re dealing with is either a blessing or a lesson. If you ever begin to question your journey, hold your hand to your heart. If you feel your heart beating, that\u2019s a sign you have a purpose to fulfill. Don\u2019t give up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12415,"template":"","interest":[],"discipline-type":[],"profile-type":[1436],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/9153"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12415"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/9153\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9185,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/9153\/revisions\/9185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"interest","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/interest?post=9153"},{"taxonomy":"discipline-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/discipline-type?post=9153"},{"taxonomy":"profile-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile-type?post=9153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
