Forget Resolutions. The Secret to Freedom and Focus this Year.

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

If you could go back and tell your college self one thing, what would it be? About work, about life, about love, about career, about anything?
I’m speaking to a summer PR undergrad course, and though I’ve spoken to classes many times before, the professor for this class was so open with where she wanted me [...]

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

I realized today that I’ve been blogging a while now. I’ve written a lot of different types of posts.
