My Work
Throughout my two and a half years here at Pittsburg State University I have developed a wide realm of knowledge on the topic of Communication. From research writing to completing group projects (many times) to presenting my own theories, I have come to understand how communication affects much more in our daily lives than we realize. Above, I have decided to showcase some of my best work as a Communication graduate here at PSU as well as who I am personally.
