Hi, I’m Bailey
I am currently completing my fourth year at Auburn University and will graduate in May of 2027. I changed my major to marketing after my sophomore year, and have absolutely fallen in love with the field. My passion for marketing grows bigger with each class that I take and the more areas that I discover and learn about. While I would love to work in any area of marketing, I am particularly interested in paid advertising, brand, in-store, digital, or event marketing. I also have lots of interest in consulting, retail management and merchandising. I have taken or am currently enrolled in classes such as entrepreneurship, digital marketing, advertising strategy, retail management, customer relationship management, and more.
One of the reasons why I am incredibly passionate about marketing is that it combines so many things that I enjoy. I love problem-solving and hands-on projects, being able to express my creativity, understanding the “why?” behind decisions people make, and working and engaging with others.
Where I’m Headed
My short-term goal is to gain hands-on marketing and business experience through attaining a relevant internship before graduation, finishing my degree, and finding a full-time role after graduation.
My long-term goal is to use my varied experience in marketing, business, customer service, and creative endeavors to eventually start or operate a small business of my own.
