As my graduation approaches, I have been considering the experiences that have most shaped during my college experience. Arguably, I learned more from my time with Her Campus than I learned within the classroom. Her Campus provided my with experiences that I couldn’t find at my University.
Freshman year when I applied to launch Her Campus Marywood, I could never have imagined two years later, I would be walking away from this organization forever changed. Her Campus provides its team members with a unique experience, a hands-on experience. During my time with Her Campus, I was taught valuable career lessons including content editing, social media techniques, email etiquette and people management.
Not only was I greeted with a wonderful resume-enhancing opportunity, I was welcomed into a community of like-minded, goal-oriented and hardworking women. I am beyond blessed to have made some amazing friendships through Her Campus that will continue on following my graduation.
More than anything, I am grateful for the opportunities Her Campus afforded me in regards to self-growth. Over the last two years, I have grown more personally and professionally than ever before and I credit that to my time spent with Her Campus. I learned just how hard I can work, how to make the difficult decisions and more than anything how to work with other people. Her Campus taught me that every individual has a unique voice, perspective and story to be told and offers a platform for us to share our voices. I am incredibly grateful to be a part of this orgaization and look forward to watching it continue to grow as a graduate.
