Who Am I?

My name is Jordan Galkowski. I am a senior at Missouri State University studying marketing, advertising and promotions, and Spanish. I’ve never written a blog post before and I’ve always been somewhat uncomfortable writing about myself, so after going through a quasi-quarter life crisis, I decided to give it a shot!

I’m very dramatic if you couldn’t already tell. I enjoy spending my free time—the little that I have—going hiking, exercising, traveling, reading and spending time with friends. I am very adventurous. Taking risks and doing things outside of my comfort zone are things I enjoy doing frequently. I get bored easily, but when I am interested in something, I quickly become very passionate about it. I work really hard while going to school because I want to design a life that I am proud to live. I’ve always held myself to a high standard, so sometimes I can be a bit harsh on myself. Independent is an adjective that I like to use to describe myself. Asking for help is something I don’t do often. This can be a downfall at times because I tend to put too much on my plate at once. No matter the topic, I enjoy learning new things. I try to have a positive outlook on life because I think that life is too short to not be happy.

Life After Graduation

Saying the word ‘graduate’ makes me think of endings and endings are sad. After I finish my degree, I plan to travel for a few months before I settle down and start a career. Traveling is something that I am very passionate about because I want to see the world and experience the culture that it brings.

In my future, I hope to have a career in the marketing and advertising world where I can use both my knowledge and creativity in the workplace.

Last, but certainly not least, I am a Bear!
