Introductions

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog!
My name is Katie and I am a Communication Studies major at Kutztown University with a double minor in Public Relations and Professional Writing. There are a lot of different occupations I could have with my major, but my dream is to work in Google in their PR department. I realize this is a very big dream, but it is something that I keep in the back of my head each day as I go through my college education.
Because I enjoy writing so much, I actually write for a website called the Odyssey, which is a website compiled of articles written by college students for college students. (or the millennial generation, to be less specific) I do not get paid for my position as a writer, but I love it just the same. Writing is one of my passions, and being able to do that on a weekly basis and have my voice heard by so many people is rewarding and exciting for me. One of my goals in writing for the Odyssey is to have my article shared by over 100,000 people, but I know the chances of that happening are slim. This summer, I plan to get an internship in something that has to do with the professional writing or public relations field, so I can start to get a feel for the type of job I would have in the future.
A bit more about my interests: I love music and musicals, hanging out with my friends and boyfriend, working out, and reading books. Working out is a huge past time for me, and something I take very seriously. It's one of my favorite ways to reduce my stress after a long day of classes. Reading has been one of my most treasured past times since I was very small, and I'm currently reading through all of the Harry Potter books right now!

I hope you enjoy my blog as much as I enjoy writing it. Have a great day!
