I figured that in the midst of this progressive period for the media, it’d be more convenient if I shared my resume package to potential employers on a Web site.

I will graduate in May 2009 from San Diego State University with a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and two minors in psychology and political science. I will have a 3.6 GPA.

I’m on the Dean’s List and in the honor’s society for my major.

At SDSU I was a member of the SPJ club (I’m also a national SPJ member), College Democrats club, Scholars Without Borders club and Lambda Pi Eta Honors Society.

I also have volunteered with many organizations and projects in San Diego, including the Alzheimer’s Association, teaching children how to read and Meels on Wheels.
