Through the Media and Communication Arts Program, I have learned the fundamentals of communicating in business settings through many medias. During my time there, I learned to create effective business memos, letters, emails, blogs and podcasts. I also learned how to communicate effectively across cultures, in a clear, concise, and coherent manner. The program taught me to improve my professional and practical communication skills, while learning how the media and new technology affects communication in the work place.

Additionally, I learned how to create corporate events from the brainstorming phase, through the proposal phase all the way to the actual set up, budget, and strike phase. My classes in Media and Public Relations taught me the proper format for PR Plans and Press Kits, having to design a full plan and kit for a real business, and my Media Law class taught me the ins and outs of privacy, defamation, as well as ethics in communications.

Above all, the Corporate Communications and Reputation class truly helped me in my career right now, as I learned to fully analyze and measure a local businesse's reputation and create a communications plan to improve it.

Since graduating in 2013, I have been able to be a guest lecturer for two of my former professors, as well as at Networking events held at Pace. 

I truly believe that Pace University has given me every single tool for success, and I am so grateful for the amazing experience and education that I received from there! 

My first year of graduate school at Pace University was more than I could have asked for. Not only did I make a lot of great connections, but I won the 2012 ePortfolio contest, allowing my ePortfolio to be featured on Pace's website. I was also able to write about my successes from my first year in my "Success Story" essay, which was one of the few essays chosen to be on Pace's website, as well as featured in a short promotional video for the University.
