Her Campus at Sacramento State is a great opportunity for students who want be more involved in their campus community, learn more about working at an online publication and discovering different ways to express their creativity through writing, event planning or social media. I first learned about Her Campus through an online Facebook ad. I saw they were doing a #HerConference event in NYC featuring entrepreneurs, bloggers, media influencers, and so much more. After researching more about this conference focusing on career development for college women, of course I had to fly to NYC to check it out. It was definitely worth the five-hour flight. I finally felt ready to enter the marketing world and inspired to work in a new direction with the help from Her Campus. After arriving back to Cali, I received the opportunity to launch a Her Campus Chapter at Sacramento State. Because I felt so inspired from Her Conference, I wanted to bring these opportunities to my campus community.
