I’m a writer, a rambler, a sarcastic dork and a hopeless wanderer. Driven by the words of Austen, Mumford and Yeats I’m motivated contradictions. I’m a pessimistic romantic. I’m a social introvert. I’m an editor who cannot self-edit!
I once strove to be a free sprit. I wanted to write about the things I love in the places I love. However, after being a “journalist” for a few years I realized I was wandering down the wrong path. Then, I found my way into the world of marketing. I realized that instead of simply writing about the things I love I could play a bigger role in making other people love them as well.
So here I am. I’m hopelessly wandering through the next 14 months of grad school, internships, international trips and more. With my hopes for success on fire, I’ve found myself at two very clichéd diverged roads on my path. With summer internships just around the corner it’s finally time for me to make up my mind: do I want to work in the music industry or in retail? On one path I would get to brand bands. I would get to dig deep into the minds of fans to create promotion and strategies. In the other, I’d enter the realm of shopper marketing. I’d still be in the minds of the people, but my work would be more centralized and structured.
Hopefully you will enjoy reading about my journey. While my class schedule won’t allow me to update on a daily basis I am going to try to update as regularly as possible.
xoxo,
Lindsey
