How has your undergraduate ANTH degree has impacted your career?

Studying anthropology shapes my approach to public relations everyday. It shapes how I target specific audiences through content, media pitches, and celebrity engagement. I approach my audience as an anthropologist observing and collecting data, then using that data to inform my outputs. 

Do you have any advice for current ANTH undergrads?

Our most valuable asset is our humanity. Be kind, caring, and joyful. Life is hard, no reason to make it harder!
