Blueprints for Tomorrow: My Life, My Goals
Short-Term Goals
In terms of my short-term goals, I aim to join the event management program this July, followed by the advertising and marketing program starting in September. My plan is to complete my final year and earn my diploma from the latter by April 2025.
The Dream Internship
Ideally, I’ll utilize my event management diploma to secure an advertising internship in a place I’d genuinely enjoy day to day life in. I’m eyeing a bigger city like Toronto or Ottawa for this, as my internship would also mean a chance to move from Windsor. Working in events is a big dream for me. Landing a role on the marketing team at a major venue like the Rogers Centre would be amazing – I have such a passion for events and marketing experiences.
Personal Aspirations
Semi-long-term, on a personal note, I really want to live in the gay neighborhood of a big city before I turn 25. I don't see myself spending my entire adult life there, but experiencing young adulthood so surrounded by community would be an irreplaceable experience!
Long-Term Vision
Looking even further ahead, I aspire to work for a company where I feel not just financial and personal security, but also a deep moral alignment with their impact on the world. Time on this planet is finite, but the ripple effect of our actions are significant. In advertising, you're speaking to the masses, which is why I want my work to contribute positively to the world. It’s crucial to me that I can look back and be proud of the legacy I leave. This means much more to me than just a paycheck.
