Additional Information - Description
I am very good with math, numbers and cameras. On the weekends during my JR year at URI, I flew down to Miami to work with some big content creators by filming, editing, and helping manage all of their money. I also do a lot of media marketing for lots of nightlife and attractions down in Miami right from my computer. I was a URI 101 mentor my JR year. My role during this time was to help freshman students and set them up for academic success. I was there for students to resolve any questions, issues, and to help them out with work. I took pride in this class knowing that I was one who was selected to do this.
