Unlike most individuals, I don’t suffer from speech anxiety. I’m among the 25% of women who enjoy public speaking, presenting and any form of entertainment that happens on a stage. I celebrated the art of presentation as a young student and then mastered it in undergrad as the Director of Marketing for Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE).

Over the years, I’ve learned that the most difficult part of a presentation is interacting with your audience. Even as a professional, I don’t always know how the message will be received or what questions may come up. This is why I practice my principles and tailor my presentations per audience research.

Here’s a list of principles that have helped me to excel in my career:

One year in advertising. Check. Two months on the social media team. Double check. This past April, I had the opportunity to move from the Accounts team to the Social Media team as a Community Manager.

A year ago, I took a leap of faith for my dream job in advertising and I have no regrets. Needless to say, it's been one hell of a ride.

As a Community Manager, my days are filled with stimulating projects, thought-provoking brainstorms, and rigid deadlines. At times it can be a glamorous life, but it's certainly not for the faint heart. If you can make it through one year at an ad agency, then you can make it through anything.

A survival guide for the uninitiated would've been nice, but somehow I've succeeded without one. Lucky for you dear reader, I now have a wealth of knowledge to share! So what have I learned?

Today, I celebrate year four as a marketing professional. It has not been an easy walk, crawl, or drag to get to this point, but I am excited for this moment. Before I go on and on about the highs and lows of the marketing world, let’s time hop to fully understand my process.

It all started in 1997, when I wanted to be an actress. I loved being on stage and bringing characters to life. It was something I was good at and it taught me how to be dramatic. I learned how to cultivate creativity, improvise, and communicate conveying stories to a variety of audiences.
