My name is Marissa Gonzalez and I am a senior public relations major at Pennsylvania State University. I’m originally from South Williamsport, PA.
I am currently searching for jobs and am focusing on social media and brand management, as I have found that I have a passion for these areas through my involvement in college. I feel that my creative and writing skills have improved immensely through my experience running social media accounts, so I would love to utilize and expand on these skills in my future career.
Since being in college, I have had the opportunity to volunteer for THON, the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. I have learned a lot while being in multiple leadership positions, including Special Events, Development and Public Relations. On the Public Relations Committee, I am one of the Social Media Captains, managing our verified social media accounts with a combined following of over 180,000.
Aside from my involvement in THON, my interests include photography and traveling. If it’s not the school year, you can find me traveling to a new place or visiting my sister in San Francisco, CA. I hope to incorporate these passions into my career.
