My decision to major in digital media innovation was born out of desperation, but it turned out to be a stroke of luck. I was struggling with my Spanish 2 class and feeling anxious about the four-year foreign language requirement for my major in mass communications. It was during a conversation with my mom in our living room that we stumbled upon DMI, and the rest, as they say, is history. I'm now deeply passionate about what I do, and I'm grateful for the chance to kickstart my career in a field that ignites my enthusiasm.
