About Michael
​
Hi, I'm Michael!
I am a student at American University Kogod School of Business, pursuing an MS degree in Marketing Analytics. After helping a small business research and expand its consumer market, social media presence, and clientele, I decided to pursue analytics to continue to support companies prepare strategies to build stronger brands and successful media marketing campaigns. I am looking for opportunities to help polish and improve my marketing and analytics skills. So, If you think you may have an opportunity for me, let’s connect and discuss!
​
Besides working and/or studying, I love to be cuddled up in a chair or my bed while reading or playing cozy video games like Stardew Valley or Animal crossing. I also love interior design and architecture and spend TOO many hours creating houses in The Sims or spending way too much money decorating my home. Also! I am obsessed with skincare and beauty products and will always be available to recommend or review a product for you :)
I may be soft-spoken but I am not afraid to voice my opinion and stand up for what is right.
