ABOUT ME STATEMENT

I am Deima, a student at Limestone University majoring in Professional Communications. I believe that skills learned throughout the university years prepared me to open my own website. In addition to managing the website, I am doing a Harvard certificate online and trying to participate in extracurricular activities. I have been also nominated to be a captain of the team to attend NCAA board meetings. I will hold a BA in Professional Communications from Limestone University and continue to get my Master's degree in United States.

Black Mirror Reflection on Nosedive episode

We try to look good on social media and never post something real; There is sugary and there is diabetes; Fake-smile jail cells; Comparing yourself to people (ranking); Credit scores; We lose or we cannot talk with some people because they think we are not good enough for them to be friends; While reading Wired article I bumped into this sentence which made me think: “It was as if Amazon had swallowed eBay, Apple News, Groupon, American Express, Citibank, and YouTube and could siphon up data from all of them.” Now a lot of apps are trying to be related to one another or for example if you post one thing on one of the apps it automatically shows on the other, which I hate.

So I should think of a smart place to put it in. 4. Some of my portfolio links are gonna be on the first page to interest people, others are gonna be in separate add. 5. My personal addition is gonna be order panel if people are interested, so they would not need to go try to find my email, then go to email and write an email.
