About me

Gender	Female
Industry	Communications or Media
Occupation	Media Sales Research Manager
Location	Astoria, NY, United States
Introduction	I'm originally from Ohio where I graduated from Bowling Green State University majoring in telecommunications and minoring in sociology. I currently work for a TV rep firm analyzing tv ratings for ABC, NBC, and CBS for different markets throughout the US for national spot sale ads. On the weekends, I work for a non-profit to fulfill some philantropic needs. I'm currently pursuing my Masters in Media Studies at the New School. I want to focus on the the theory aspect of the industry and how governments wield media's influence over the public. I've been in New York for about 5 years, and thoroughly enjoy the diversity and science of possibilities.
Interests	Socializing, Reading, Hitting Golf Balls, watching movies. Nostalgic interests include Horseback riding and playing the viola which I still dabble in.
Favorite movies	I am a sap for the Tarantino movies. 'True Romance' is probably up in the top 5 due to its script structure and dialogue flow. Artistically speaking, I do enjoy Jim Jarmusch films. The pacing and the shot compositions really expand the role of the camera and the director. Guilty Pleasure are the zombie movies. Ridiculous? Yes. Entertaining? ABSOLUTELY! 'Dead Alive' aka 'Brain Dead' is a personal favorite.
Favorite music	In short, if it has a good beat, then I can probably appreciate it for whichever genre it represents. Expansively, I have a VERY eclectic taste in music that spans from Dvorak to Skinny Puppy. Then it even loops through some Buddy Holly to Girl Talk.
Favorite books	Crime and Punishment, Fountainhead, Sirens of Titan, Bonfire of the Vanities.
