Sophie Burkhardt

I am an English major who appreciates the power of the written word. I am in awe that the perfect combination of these words, whether digital or on paper, has the power to transform our lives and move us in a myriad of ways. Words help us cultivate new relationships and learn about new experiences. My professional goal is to combine my love of writing with marketing and social media skills to help companies and organizations better connect with their communities, clients and prospects.
