As with probably most incoming UCF Freshmen, my first year of college was a dramatic change of pace. Everything was new; professors, roommates, friends, ultimately, a new community. Even though I felt like a fish out of water, my first year at UCF as I remember it made me feel at home, and I attribute the number one reason for this to being informed about all the happenings and activities of the campus.
As a result, after browsing the SGA website, I jumped at the opportunity for a chance to work with the Executive Communications Council. Working with the ECC means I can be a part of the process that informs students the great benefits that UCF has to offer. Furthermore, advertising and marketing have developed to be blossoming interests of mine. Advertising campaigns and marketing research constantly draw my attention and I enjoy witnessing what gears turn to captivate and influence an audience and why. As a student studying advertising and marketing from the books, participating in the experience of working with the ECC allows me to immerse myself in the real-world, hands-on system of how a true marketing campaign runs.
As a hopeful candidate to joining the Executive Communications Council, I can contribute a variety of skills and qualities. My personal theme to live by is balance, and this is present in most aspects of my life including my attitude in accomplishing work. I am highly attentive to detail, but I can take a step back and absorb the big picture. I produce excellent results on my own, but also excel collaborating with ideas of others in a group. I tend to be proactive, constantly setting goals to achieve and excel beyond. I can be flexible or decisive, and I have a knack for perceiving something as how someone else would see it. Moreover, as an active member of multiple student organizations on campus, I have noticed the impact that SGA and its various branches have. For example, as a member of the 2010-2011 finance committee for the Korean Student Association/Chinese American Student Association Block Party, I realized the tremendous support that SGA put into making the cultural event a reality.
With that being said, I am excited to have a chance to work with the Student Government Association. Events and student involvement would not be possible without the SGA, the anchor of all student services, and thus my amazing experience so far as a student at UCF would not have been possible without the work of Student Government Association organizations such as the Executive Communications Council.
