TEDxUGA means the most to me as a student organization. It is so exciting to be able to take classes and be a part of this organization and still call it a club.
Working on student films with my best friends has been the highlight. Working with different collaborators overwhelms me with an environment of creativity.
I’ve never been a part of a group with more pride and camaraderie than Grady. The connection and relationships between current students and alumni is truly special.
Passions: travel, health and building relationships.
My favorite Grady class has been Public Relations Communication with Tom Cullen. He pushed me to be the best and by using real clients, I got educational and professional experience.
Passions: becoming bilingual, travel and environmental policy
The faculty are what make Grady College so special! They make you feel like family, and while they expect a lot, they're always willing to help and connect you with their network.
Passions: Georgia football, civic engagement and ice cream
I serve Talking Dog Agency as the Director of New Business Client Relations. The overall experience has prepared me and given me confidence to be bold in my career ambitions.
Passions: art, adventures and being a student at UGA.
Grady College is special because of the opportunities to work toward my goals. I get real-life experience and I am prepared to do great things because of Grady College.
The network connections are the best part about Grady. You learn from industry professionals who want to see you prosper, and you get access to a supportive community of leaders.
Passions: reading, music and TedX.

Journalism
InfUSion Magazine was the first club I joined and it allowed me to be heard. Being editor-in-chief my junior year was an experience that helped me grow.
Passions: books (reading and writing), learning about different cultures and music.
This may sound cliché, but Grady really feels like home to me. As soon as I stepped foot into orientation and heard about what advertising was, as my dad likes to say, “my eyes lit up.”
My favorite class was Telenovelas, Culture, and Society by Dr. Carolina Acosta-Alzuru. This class made me feel close to home and I was able to learn more about my own culture.
Passions: mental health, event planning and Venezuela.
There is an opportunity to grow in any capacity while in Grady College. Whether it’s through classes, organizations or community outreach, there are endless avenues to develop.
