About Me
My journey started on the soccer field, where I spent five years as a collegiate athlete. The sport taught me resilience, teamwork, and the drive to push boundaries—values that now shape my work in digital media.
I graduated in 2023 from Franklin College with a degree in Multimedia Journalism and Public Relations, where I developed my love for storytelling. I refined my skills in writing, photography, videography, and content strategy, allowing me to navigate the ever-evolving media landscape.
While in college, I discovered my passion for social media influencing, growing my TikTok to nearly half a million followers. My content spans streetwear, fashion, travel, and lifestyle, allowing me to collaborate with brands like DICK’S Sporting Goods, Doc Martens, Tillys, Zumiez, PRIME, and many more.
Beyond social media, I’ve worked in sports media, political journalism, and digital marketing. From filming and interviewing pro athletes with HoopEditz to writing political articles at the Indiana Statehouse, my background is diverse—giving me a unique perspective on media and branding.
Now, as the Coordinator of Social Media and Digital Marketing at Franklin College, I bring my skills full circle, managing content strategy, overseeing media interns, and executing marketing campaigns that connect with audiences and inspire engagement.
With a background in sports, lifestyle, and media production, I thrive on helping brands, creators, and organizations tell their stories in the most authentic and impactful way possible.

By: Madeline Alexander INDIANAPOLIS- The controversy over whether or not college athletes should be paid has gone on for years. But if you know anything about social media and sports then you’ve seen that the new Name, Image, and Likeness within the NCAA has become a big deal. Previously, schools would use individuals' NIL to market and make money. Those athletes would never see any money or get any of the profit that they were gaining for the school. According to the new NCAA rules, “Name, imag

Hoosiers share opposing thoughts on Roe v. Wade leak
INDIANAPOLIS—A leaked U.S. Supreme Court draft published by POLITICO signals the likely overturning of Roe v. Wade this summer, which would put matters into states’ hands and could ban abortion.
Right now, abortion is legal in Indiana, but if Roe v. Wade is overturned, then abortion rights will be affected here and across the nation, and Hoosiers have a lot to say about that.
