Hello PSOBA followers!
When I’m not working hard blogging for PSOBA or in class you can probably find me behind a 27 inch iMac working on Photoshop or doing work in the St. Mary’s Student Center. Why would I do this? Because when I’m not doing all the above mentioned things, I’m working as the ADvantage Director.
What is ADvantage you ask? ADvantage is the student-lead promotions and advertising program on campus. If you’ve ever visited campus and been in any academic building or residence hall you’ve probably seen a flat screen TV playing ads for upcoming campus events put on by clubs and campus departments. Well, I manage the TV boards and manage designers who design the slides, as well as do some designing myself! I would say my favorite part of this job is getting to be creative, work on my photoshop skills, and help clubs and departments meet their marketing/promotions needs. It has been an incredibly rewarding experience and helped me decide what I want to do post graduation. I think an important part of college is taking advantage (no pun intended) of every opportunity that comes your way to develop skills and overall help you pick what you want to do with the rest of you life (if you can ever really know).

That’s all I have for this week, I’ll be back after Fall Break back home in California! Write to you all after the break!
(A happy Advantage Director/Blogger/Student ready for break!)
