Welcome to Brazen Careerist!

About Me

I am a communication, public relations and design professional in the process of developing my career and seeing where life will take me. I graduated from James Madison University in 2008 with a BA degree in Communication and Media Arts & Design, and moved to the Washington, DC area a few months later to embark on my career journey.

I am determined to continue learning more everyday and I’m inspired by successful hard working people that have made an impact in the lives of others. I am a fun loving, self-motivated individual with a zeal for life. I enjoy connecting with and meeting new people that broaden my perspectives and add some spice to my life!

I am a beach girl at heart but I really love DC and enjoy living in the city. There is always something new to discover and I enjoy the challenge! I hope to expand my network here on Brazen and meet new people to learn from and share with.

My weak spots are Starbucks, fresh margaritas, cheese, expensive makeup and the beach.
