2. Before I started the MCBS Program, I was a young aspiring author blindly
chasing a dream without a plan.
3. However, just like every typical young person, I felt like I knew it all and knew
what I was doing, so everything in my eyes was going to be all right.
4. I had always thought I wanted to just attend college and get a degree in
writing, then go on to either self publish or become the next J.K. Rowling.
5. Publishing my first ever novel or book series has always been something that
I’ve wanted to make concrete in my future.
6. But then, I realized that with the skills that I have with public relations,
entertainment, and the media, I could do so much more than just be a writer.
7. My inspirations in the media industry have always been Alan Ball, Quentin
Tarantino, and Anderson Cooper.
8. Just looking at their impressive resumes and accolades has always built up
my motivation and passion to be involved in the industry.
9. Because of that, I immediately started researching on the best schools for
entertainment and media that the country has to offer.
10. Being from South Carolina, there are not that many schools that really focus
on the media to where you can actually go far in the media and entertainment
industry.
12. Because of that, I grew interest with Full Sail after doing thorough research on
their degree programs and their alumni’s success in the entertainment
industry, including gaming, music and media production, and writing.
13. Because of that, my motivation and passion was renewed and reinvented,
taking away the blindness that I was suffering with myself.
14. Until finally it hit me: Full Sail was the direction I should go to begin my goal
and execute my plan of future success in media.
15. They have one of the most impressive resumes in the country when it comes
to universities and they work with some of the biggest partners in the industry
like World Wrestling Entertainment, Disney, ESPN, to name a few.
16. And ever since I decided to pursue my passion for media, I have become a
young aspiring author and future media Renaissance Man who is clearly
chasing a dream with a clear plan of how I will get there.
17. Older, more mature and wiser from experiences and gained knowledge, I
have accepted and maintained a grasp of my goals in the future.
