Welcome to Survey of Professional Media

Hello everyone! My name is Andrea Jones and I am from Florissant, Missouri; a county just about twenty minutes northeast of Lindenwood. I am very excited because I just changed my major last semester from Elementary Education to Corporate Communications. It was a big change, but I finally think I am in the right place. I am leaning more towards the marketing/ advertising aspect of the major, but I am still not quite sure. I still have a lot to learn about the communications/ business field. I am not heavily involved with Lindenwood activities, due to the fact that I have a part time job as a server at Bandana’s BBQ, and am an independent small business owner within a nutrition company. I do try to get involved with different Christian campus ministries, though. Something interesting about me was that I was a WWII and Civil War re-enactor on high school. I wore all of the clothes, scrimmaged around the field, and shot the big, bad M1 rifles. It was defiantly and experience. I am not a huge television show person, but my roommate has gotten my hooked on Heroes, Deal or NO Deal, and yes, American Idol. My favorite movies are the old classics, including Singing in the Rain, Sound of Music, and any Shirley Temple movie. Recently, though I enjoy action, such as the X-Men series, Transformers, and the Spiderman series. I am so excited this semester to learn things in my communications classes that I know nothing about, but know I will need in my career.
