Hi all! My name is Jackie Smith and I’m from a small town on the Jersey Shore and no it’s nothing like the tv show<\/a>. However, we do have the best bagels, best pizza, best boardwalks, and the worst drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n

I’m currently residing in Tallahassee just north of FSU, where I am earning my MA in Public Interest Media and Communications and starting this semester I will be working towards earning a certificate in School Librarian Leadership. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have my BA in Political Science with a minor in Women and Genders Studies as well as a certificate in Theater Management from Rutgers<\/a>. If it’s not obvious I am completely undecided with what I want to do with the rest of my life and so right now I’m winging this grad school thing. I am currently interning with the Seminole Dinning’s marketing department to see if that’s an avenue I want to pursue. I am also heavily considering working as a School Librarian and potentially earning my MS in Information Studies here at FSU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of this class I am most looking forward to the digital story. I am hoping to improve my creative writing skills throughout the semester. Even though I have tons of artsy experience from photography and stage design I feel like my creative writing is lacking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond my academic studies I am into live music, photography, gaming, and my dog Blu. My favorite band is Shinedown <\/a>(featured above) who I’ve seen live six times since 2019! My current gaming obsession is Baldur’s Gate 3 aka The 2023 Game of the Year<\/a> (sorry not sorry Spiderman fans). Last but not least, an honorable mention to my dog Blu Bell aka The Beast. She’s a pit mix and the light of my life, who unfortunately is back home with my parents in New Jersey. <\/p>\n\n\n
