Hey there!

I’m Kennedy Coleman, a current senior at Marquette University with an advertising major and digital media minor in the Diederich College of Communication. This semester, I’m looking forward to getting the chance to delve into the ADPR 4300, “emerging and social media”. More specifically, it’ll be interesting to learn exactly how popular platforms of social media are taking over and come to understand why they’ve got the power to influence our activities, beliefs and behaviors more than we may realize.

Personally, I desire to earn and excel within an established advertising agency or multimedia ad market, in the future. I hope to pursue a mutually beneficial position where prior experiences and skills may be utilized for the advancement of the client and its target audiences. After completion of undergraduate studies at Marquette, my goal is to rise to a successful career in advertising and digital media with a position of developing creative strategies for ad campaigns- as well as radio and television media commercials for national corporations.

As an advertising major I have a passion for designing social media promotions in particular for platforms such as Instagram and Facebook along with adding new skills to my belt including expanding my creativity through experience of learning how to utilize popular new features such as “Instagram Stories”. Likewise, I’m excited to that I have the opportunity to learn how to apply tools and strategies instructed in this course to help me enhance my personal and business practices on social networks.
