Hi i'm Mariel


My name is Mariel Rae Rothman and I am a sophomore at the Univerisity of Maryland. I transferred here from Bucknell University because I was interested in being near a major city and craved a bigger school. I love playing tennis, hanging out with my family and friends, cooking, shopping, and exploring new cities and towns. I discussed in my ELMS post that I use technology everyday and that it plays a large role in my life. I am hoping to use technology when I graduate as a part of my job because I am interested in how technology changes life for the better. I am hoping to graduate with a business degree and in order to enhance my resume and my experience I have been busy improving my technology skills. I combined my interest in business with my love for fashion when I was a social media intern for a fashion company. I tweeted and posted on Facebook for a new fashion company (The company’s website is www.asodamisi.com) Being a social media intern combined my interest in fashion with my interest in social media and marketing. In addition, I just received a new internship at the University of Maryland with the Marketing Department. I start tomorrow and my boss told me that technology will play a big role in my job. I will be calling clients, inputting data into spreadsheets, and tweeting about the upcoming Maryland Day.

I have many questions about mass communication that I look forward to covering this semester. I hope to learn more about how technology will change in the future and how it affects the economy. I understand how it affects people my age but I am not clear about its affects on the broader world. I am interested in seeing if the statistics about technology changes as we take the class because technology is always changing and becoming more popular.
