>> I like to call myself an aspiring of Renaissance woman.
I do many things.
I have a lot of interests.
But I've, sort of, used my background to make them all part of my life.
I started here at USC.
I was a communication major and an art history and advertising minor, separate.
And I love that.
I mean, communication, I think, is a fabulous major.
It opened up so many doors.
You know, you can go to an interview, you have a communication background; people are like, okay.
You can do the basic things that people need.
It's always an appealing job.
And I did of PR while I was in school too, so that, sort of, always helped me along with,
sort of, getting my foot in the door in jobs.
When I graduated from USC, then I took a year off and worked in a few art galleries.
And then I went to San Diego State where I got my masters
in art history, which was a wonderful program.
I mean I really enjoyed that.
I love art and museums.
And that's always a passion of mine.
I continue to write arts journalism on the side.
So it's something that I always, it always informed, sort of, my aesthetic and what I love.
