Grad School

 About a year ago I decided that I wanted to go back to school and focus on the digital world. I have found my work in e-commerce to be very fascinating and have decided this is the field that I would like to develop my career in. I was able to find a wonderful program at State University of New York at Utica/Rome, that is 100% online.  (As you can see, I am getting closer to New York!) My master of science will be in Information Design and Technology, I really has chosen to focus on social media for many of my projects and this is the topic that I will most likely write my thesis on. I feel that social media is here to stay and that it plays a large role in attracting. retaining customers in any business.

So far all of my classes have been great and I realized what graduate school is really about, it is truly about using the tools that the professors provide to guide your own learning experience. School is what you make of it and it is up to you to decided how much or little that you learn. I can honestly that unlike undergrad, I am focused on actually learning something that I can use either in my job today or for any future endeavors that I decide to take. 

I am hoping that after I finish next year that I finally find a job and am able to move to New York. It is a big move and ambitious but if I don't try, I know that I will never forgive myself. As always I will keep you posted about my journey and how it turns out!
