I will attend DePaul University for Marketing. I want to learn how to apply genuine practices that can reach people like me. As someone who struggles with body image, I truly connected with a particular wellness influencer due to her impactful marketing and advertising that was presented as authentic. My goal is to pursue a career in marketing for fitness, beauty, fashion, or entertainment, where I too can influence consumer behaviors in a positive way. In my free time, I enjoy reading, journaling, drawing, listening to music, and spending time with friends and family. I also really enjoy cooking, especially making Greek recipes. My mother passed away when I was 12, and growing up, she used to make a lot of passed-down recipes from her Greek heritage. Cooking and eating these recipes make me feel closer to her.
