When I Grow Up...

Like most kids, I aspired to be a doctor. And not any type of doctor - no, no, no - a dermatologist. I was going to fight acne like no one else's business. With a little perseverance and a class project, I was able to convince one of the many dermatologists in New Orleans to allow me to shadow them for a day.

After learning that dermatologists work with burn victims and the wounded of other gruesome events, my career choice had quickly shifted.  Stumped with career choices, I began to write, one of my favorite pasttimes.  With thoughtful consideration, I decided that I wanted to do something that combined my creative side, as well as my problem-solving prowess. And alas, I arrived at marketing communications. 

Originally, I was going to rant and rave about marketing communications in this post. But for many of my friends, colleagues, and family members, it would be OVERKILL.  They already know about my passion with this craft.  For everyone else, please look me up and I'll give you an idea about my drive and devotion to this discipline.  As a result, I have made an effort to constantly improve my thought processes to create ideas and concepts that are made to stick.

I recently applied to Digitas Boston for one of their coveted summer internships.  A requirement for their application process is to provide a creative sample.  Here is my sample.  I know, a WILD and far-fetched concept, but I relate to chocolate in several ways. Watch and listen to find out how.
