My name is Alyssa and I live over on the Space Coast of Florida in a small city called Rockledge. I\u2019m in my second year of the MIS program at FSU, where I\u2019m studying for a career in librarianship. Going hang-in-hand with that, I currently work part-time with Brevard Public Libraries<\/a> doing circulation. I\u2019ve only been working there for a few months but it\u2019s already been an incredible experience.<\/p>\n\n\n

I\u2019m not one for professional photos, but I love my digicam and preserving memories. The picture to the right was taken when my friends and I were visiting Austin’s Coffee<\/a> in Orlando on their Jazz Night. On the left is my best friend Jojo and I\u2019m on the right. I used to live in Orlando while getting my undergraduate degrees from UCF. I got a BA in English (creative writing) and a BS in psychology. Creative writing is one of my biggest hobbies, and one of my lifelong dreams is to become a published fiction author. In my spare time, I also enjoy walking around my local park, and doing various arts & crafts activities like painting, sewing, and wood-burning.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like many others in this field, I also love reading. At any given time, I always have a book I\u2019m working through, and I won\u2019t be stopping anytime soon, especially since working in a library has doubled my TBR list. Right now, I’m reading a novel called Good Spirits<\/a> at the recommendation of one of my coworkers. My friends and I also have a book club to keep each other accountable on our reading goals and to discuss books.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My knowledge is a bit limited when it comes to computers, editing, or digital media. That being said, I find editing photos to be interesting (it goes hand-in-hand with photography, after all) and I\u2019ve dabbled in it on occasion. I\u2019m hoping this class will help me improve my skills and to hopefully have fun in the process!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
