As the plane sat on the Jacksonville airport runway to NYC, I took everything out of my lap and braced myself for what was to come. One my favorite things about flying is the moment where you’re taking off and for a couple of seconds, the front wheel is in the air and the backContinue reading “Wheels Up!”

Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen
Over the past week I hung out with PR mentees through FPRA. Talking with them reminds me of my PR mentor through FPRA and the times we had. One day when I was a freshman she shared the “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen” song with me. Now I share it with you all. Add aContinue reading “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen”
Christopher Robin Said to Pooh
Loyalty can be a lonely place. Loyalty to your work, and your friendships, and mainly to yourself leads to confusion. The constant struggle to do what is right towards everyone along with yourself eventually leads to choices. Choices changing the complacent present. Even though you know this choice is correct, the future looks hazy andContinue reading “Christopher Robin Said to Pooh”
Freshman Turned PR Boy
I don’t recognize the PR boy I am today. Two years ago I probably had the same basic skills I have today, but now I actually have experience under my belt. As a freshman I remember how impressive the seniors were. The ones who seemed to have and know it all. The ones who seemed to be a hustler by day and rockstar byContinue reading “Freshman Turned PR Boy”
Finding Roots – A Sweet Two Years

It turned into a vulnerable, beautiful process allowing me to be connect with others, find myself and be honest. Below are the top five posts of my blog that helped bring meContinue reading “Finding Roots – A Sweet Two Years”
Friday Musings
Friday is finally here. Let’s take a look back at my past week and what’s caught my eye in the entertainment world. Wednesday was the first Florida Public Relations Association Tallahassee Student Chapter meeting of the year! If it weren’t for this group, two years ago, I never would’ve met some of my closest friendsContinue reading “Friday Musings”
Whirlwind
I rush out the door. I need to get out of here. It’s been too much public relations lately. Class. Work. Helping friends. FPRA. There is still a few hours until sunset, but it’s slightly dark outside. I feel the wind encompassing me. I should go home soon. I need to go home soon. NotContinue reading “Whirlwind”
Real Talk
This past weekend I realized some inner truths through conversations with friends and being honest with myself. I basically “got real” and so did some of my friends. Often we end up lying to ourselves or not disclosing the truth to someone else, when we should. We need to get real about our feelings andContinue reading “Real Talk”
Change Is Hard Yet . . .
Coming back this school year I thought things would be a lot easier than they are. I thought even though I am busy, I will be able to hang out with my friends a lot and I can handle all the other demands of homework, work, classes, extracurriculars and dating. However, change happens whether weContinue reading “Change Is Hard Yet . . .”
Where Has Life Taken Me?
This past year of my life is very different from what I expected it to be. If you asked me where I would be in a year, a year ago, I would have said in Boston in the theatre district attending school, and that’s all I would have known. I obviously decided to go to school atContinue reading “Where Has Life Taken Me?”
