Background On September 5th, 2018, I began my first day at an internship with the globally-known publication that has captivated Texans (born-and-raised as well as Texans-at-heart). The collaboration was through the advertising department with UT’s Moody College, and included regular check-ins, assignments, and evaluations; as well as a speaker series. However, the internship came aboutContinue reading “Texas Monthly”

PDF 1 PDF 2 Above are parts 1 and 2 of a project that was months in the making. A team and I from a media planning course formed the unofficial agency The Elevate Group and created a communication strategy request for proposal for the Austin company Groovy Automotive. This is a wonderful example ofContinue reading “Creative Portfolio: Groovy Automotive”

In early February of 2018, I was accepted by a distinguished UT professor to be one of her undergraduate Research Assistants. As of right now we are still setting plans up, but I will post published information here once I have it. The research is a comprehensive study on the effects of the display andContinue reading “Advertising Research”

I will obviously update this page when I have the final product. One of my courses at Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico City is in cinematography. The extraordinary characteristic of this particular course is that it is “project-based learning.” In other words, the entire semester is spent going through the complete process of professionally developingContinue reading “Short Film”

I have recently returned to my high school days in which I spent entire semesters editing yearbook photos as an extracurricular activity. Rather than purchasing Photoshop however, I found an app (quick plug here, check out Enlight) with a good pricing model that has as many Photoshop features as I think will fit on aContinue reading “Creative Portfolio: Digital Photography”

ThisContinue reading “Study Abroad: BFP Semester Plus in Mexico City”

Awards of $2000 minimum. Was awarded $2000Continue reading “Scholarships and Grants Awarded”

For a class in Advertising Creativity, I was asked to work with a group of seven to produce a brand manifesto for the notebook brand Field Notes over the course of two weeks. After multiple long brainstorming sessions, we decided that their cliche self-description of “back to your roots” etc online didn’t capture the trueContinue reading “Creative Portfolio: Brand Manifesto Example”

BFP Tracking As seen by the progress-tracking page screenshot above, I was not only in the massively-successful Business Foundations Program but performed with Distinction. I met all requirements, including the GPA qualifier, and earned an A in all classes in my specialized Global Track besides Marketing (due to transfer difficulties from abroad). As noted by theContinue reading “Business Foundations Program”

At the start of the school year 2016-2017, I undertook a mission to improve my leadership capabilities as much as possible, especially through the many opportunities offered throughout the year by UT’s Leadership and Ethics Institute. To that effect, I have attended individual seminars, such as one at the start of the fall semester thatContinue reading “Leadership Development”
