Wow, it has been a week since my last post? Guess my school work has been catching up to me. Finishing up this semester, as well as my studies in general, has been rewarding and scary. Rewarding because I love my peers and faculty at Salem State; scary because I am entering a job market that is at its bleakest in decades. Again, bittersweet seems to define the general emotion of the moment.

I am heading off on a job interview today with a person I connected with through social media tools like Facebook and Twitter. I am very excited and want to make sure I give it my all, so this will be a short post - I need to get ready.

But I wouldn’t be here in this moment if it weren’t for one person in particular: Professor Judi Cook. She has taken the time to show me how to tweet, create an effective website, as well as provided tips for my every day affairs. Judi holds a special place in my head, and in my heart. While I am glad to have built a wonderful working relationship, I am ever happier to have gained a friend.

To appreciate how far your journey has taken you, we have to remember all the people who helped along the way. In public relations, we always try to represent anything in the best light. But I just wanted to shine the light to the best behind the scenes professional I’ve ever worked with.

Thank you, Judi. I am so lucky to know you!
