Recent Activity  -

Bio 

I recently changed career fields from being a police officer for the last 4 plus years to going back to school for an undergraduate and masters degree in communications. I'm looking to obtain a position in the public relations/communications field. My professional skills include teamwork, effective leadership and management as well effective oral and communication skills. Full time student, communications major. I would like to branch into working for the Wounded Warrior Project, Iraq Afghanistan Veterans of America, or some type of organization like those in the public relations field.
