About Me
I am currently a senior at the University of Texas at Austin.
The major that I am pursuing is in Multimedia Journalism which focuses on the implementation
of technology and the Internet to help serve the field of journalism
and/or communication. The degree certifies my abilities to understand, use, and
learn the latest tools and software available.
In addition to the standard journalism courses, I have taken and will
take courses that help reveal the uses and effect that technology has had
on society as well as our culture. Several other foundation courses that I have completed
are Photoshop, Intro to Programming, and Graphic Design.
The variety of writing courses that I have taken allow me to be versatile
in my work. As the demand in writing style changes from formal to informal
or composition to journalistic, I am more than capable of making the transition. Having this
flexibility, when it comes to writing, makes any task achievable.
Some of the awards, organizations, and community service activities include:
International Phi Theta Kappa Society (2004-2006) Mathews Elementary School Volunteer (2006) Laredo Public Library Volunteer (2002-2003)
National Hispanic Honor Society (2002-2003) National Honor Society (2002-2003) Graduated in Top 10% of Class of 2003
Gamma Beta Phi (2006-Present) University of Texas Hispanic Journalists (2006-Present) Dean's List Recipient (2004-2005)
