I really enjoyed working with my group members in the Social Media Planning course. It was exciting to plan out a social media calendar for a brand.

Tell us about a meaningful experience you had at Marist as it pertains to your degree (whether that be with a Professor, Marist service, Scholarship opportunity, etc.).

Professor Boyle was such an incredible professor throughout the program, and although her class was tough, I think it gave myself and my group members the chance to think outside of the box and expand our thought processes.
