Hi, my name is Kelly. I am 22 years-old and a public relations major and a Spanish minor at the University of Oregon.
After my graduation this spring, I hope to broaden my experience by working as an intern for Senator Gordon Smith in Washington, D.C., the city where I was born. Since this is an election year, I expect that it will be an exciting time to work in the Congress where I can put my public relations skills and experience to the test.
Although I look forward to the possibility of interning for the Senator, my ultimate goal is to start work for a P.R. firm, where I have the opportunity to work with many different types of clients. I believe experience working with distinct companies will help me discover the types of P.R. work I really enjoy.
So, you might be wondering why I have decided to start writing a blog about public relations and the fashion industry. The truth is, I have no idea what I want to do with this public relations degree. What I do know is that I have always owned more shoes than I know what to do with. I have always enjoyed drawing, painting, designing, accesorizing, and dressing up. To me, this translates as an interest in fashion. That’s what I feel passionate about, so that’s mainly what I’m going to write about. I also plan on using this blog to discuss other public relations-related topics, such as podcasting and using social media.
