Hello there!
My name is Katie Burkhart, nice to meet ya! I am a 21-year-old junior from Fairview, TX, which is a small town about 30 mi. north of Dallas. I am majoring in Journalism: Ad/PR with a minor in Marketing. I really enjoy working out, going out with friends, watching movies, writing (on my personal WordPress blog!), and cleaning.
My first job was a pool/cabana serving position at a country club two summers ago. This past summer and semester I had a marketing internship with a staffing company based out of Portland, ME. I learned quite a bit through this internship, including Google AdWords & Analytics. My interest in learning more about analyzing keywords and other relevant data is what convinced me to take this course! Analyzing data from a marketing standpoint really intrigues me and I can’t wait to further my knowledge in that field through this class. I just started a new internship through the university! I am a communications intern for the Director of Employer Relations for Fulbright College. I’m super excited to dive in to this internship this semester and learn even more! One of my first duties is to input survey data in to a Google spreadsheet, so, once again, this class will be helpful.
I would say the best “story” I’ve ever written and am most proud of is the press release I wrote for the staffing company’s new office opening in Rhode Island. I worked so hard on it and put in a lot of effort to produce the press release. It felt great sending it out to local career centers and newspapers to publish. I felt very accomplished producing something as important as a press release!
That’s all I’ve got, and I’m really looking forward to seeing what this class has to offer me! Here’s to a successful semester!
