My name is Mikki, and I'll be teaching you all about digital media, marketing, social media, professional development, and more! This is my first year teaching a college-level course, & I can't wait to start this journey with all of you. So here's a little bit about me:
I'm currently the digital marketing coordinator for the Lawrence, Topeka, and Manhattan Hy-Vee stores. Before that I was a small business owner, and before that I worked at GO Topeka.
My academic background is in strategic communications, journalism, and creative writing. I have three degrees from Washburn - a BA in Mass Media, a BA in English, and a Masters in Liberal Studies. After graduation, I realized that I could combine two things I loved - writing and strategic planning - by working in the field of digital marketing. In my field, content is king, but strategy is a necessity. I specialize in strategic social media management, content creation, organic social media growth, and digital community management and engagement.
Fun stuff! I am a huge fan of Harry Potter and Supernatural. I love reading EVERYTHING. I hand embroider (yep, that thing your grandma does). I love sparkly things and glitter. I love paper crafts like journaling and scrapbooking. My signature color is teal, my signature accessories are sunglasses and big earrings, and my signature drink is a dirty pumpkin chai latte with almond milk. I love signature things. ;D I'm hoping to start a lifestyle blog by the end of 2016 called The Sparkle Philosophy, and I aim to run a full-time online business by the time I'm 32.
Seriously. Big earrings are my thing. Don't wear them. Image from sushiandsamba.tumblr.com. |
I can't wait to learn more about your lives, your summer, and your hopes for your college career!
