Hi, my name is Oriana! I am a junior advertising major at the University of Florida with a concentration in studio art. I transferred to UF at the beginning of the fall semester from Broward College in South Florida. I discovered my love for the field about a year ago when I decided to switch from my major in graphic design to do something more meaningful to me.

My interests include drawing, painting, knitting and pretty much anything else art related. I have always loved drawing, but recently discovered my love for sewing and knitting. When I was a kid, I had always dreamed of being an artist, and I feel like in a way I am making that dream a reality with advertising. Hopefully, I will be a part of the creative department in an agency and eventually be a creative director.

My posts on this blog will mostly consist of trade press releases for trade publication topics related to advertising happening each week. This blog will be used to aid me in the use of social media in my career and to allow me to get used to writing blog posts on a consistent basis.
