ZacharyT Interest Statement

 A few things I am interested in this semester is being able to Practice entry-level digital humanities and social sciences skills including data management, interactive visualization, archiving, and mapping, learning how to use digital tools to address questions from an interdisciplinary perspective, learning the humanities and social sciences can contribute to solving large-scale issues.  This class will be very helpful and useful because I can take the things I learned from CODES in previous semesters and use WordPress and do digitalization while making QR codes and bring some knowledge to this digital humanities class and vice versa. Since I am a PR major, digital humanities ties into the type of work that I will be doing because with digital humanities and Public Relations you have to leverage digital platforms and build trust among yourself and the clients you give your service to.  Data management is really important in PR. You have to be able not only communicate on a surface level but also when your dealing with big firms or working in hospitals you have to record and log information and being able to do that in the most efficient and effective way possible is the goal in PR. 

Zach’s Lab

  1. List of socials:

    Snapchat

    Instagram

    LinkedIn

    3) Snapchat, I use to keep up to date with my friends as another way of texting. For Instagram I use that to follow different places or local eatery places in Chicago and also to post things about my daily life as a 19-year-old college student. My LinkedIn social is used for connecting with students from SIUE and professional people who are in the same or similar field of work that I want to go into once I graduate. LinkedIn is also good for posting your accomplishments that you have gotten from school or work.

    4) As far as information I want people to know about me is that I am sophomore in college with a study of Public Relations with a minor in sociology. I am from Chicago; IL and I came to SIUE because I was awarded a scholarship that takes care of my tuition and the environment that the school is located in. I’m far enough away from home but not too far which I like. I am a very friendly person and approachable person as well.
