I work as an Executive Office Manager for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gwenandrewshomeofsuccessagency.com\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.gwenandrewshomeofsuccessagency.com\/\">Gwen Andrews Home of Success Agency<\/a>, which serves and supports individuals with behavioral issues and mental disabilities to help them eventually be rehabilitated back into society. I&#8217;m also working full-time towards my Master&#8217;s in Information Technology, with the hopes of either working in Cybersecurity or returning to Digital Media Production, where I would prefer to work heavily on various film sets as a Media Technician or in post-production work. I did professional photography for a couple of years, and I also did some videography work on the side. I want to get back into creative media because I really enjoy creative work and I enjoy the hard work that is put into it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"955\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_2707-6-955x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9134\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.9326370938361986;width:256px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_2707-6-955x1024.jpg 955w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_2707-6-280x300.jpg 280w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_2707-6-768x823.jpg 768w, https:\/\/torch.cci.fsu.edu\/~lis5313\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_2707-6.jpg 1142w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 955px) 100vw, 955px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-medium-font-size\">Outside of work and school, I enjoy doing a lot of different things. My main hobby is crocheting, which dives more into the creative side of arts and crafts. I like to make different projects, which can range from simple summer outfits (bikini sets) and small purses to roses and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amigurumi.com\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amigurumi.com\/\"><span style=\"margin: 0px;padding: 0px\">Amigurumi-style<\/span>d<\/a> plushies. Crocheting usually takes up most of my time if I am not traveling with friends, line-dancing, playing with my cats, or going to the movies. I have been able to sell a few items, but I realized that I enjoy making them for my own joy over profiting off of what I can make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-medium-font-size\">What I am interested the most about this class is the opportunity to build on my existing experience with digital media, while deepening my understanding of the concepts behind it. I\u2019m excited to explore how theory and different concepts can connect to the production process and how to be more intentional with my design choices and storytelling. Through this course, I hope to strengthen my technical skills and develop a more thoughtful approach to produce digital media that is engaging and impactful to its intended audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad2f72ca wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, my name is Destiny Rogers, and I live in Quincy, FL, which is just about thirty minutes outside of Tallahassee, FL.
