The Full Story
About Me
Hi there! I’m Frankie, a Jersey girl from Monmouth County, now soaking up the sun as a junior at the University of Miami. I’m majoring in Marketing with a minor in Interactive Media, blending creativity with strategy every chance I get. I’m passionate about all things beauty, fashion, and wellness, and I’m on a mission to turn that passion into a dream career in the industry I love.
Life at School
The University of Miami was always my dream school, and coming here has only solidified that. I truly can’t imagine myself anywhere else. Like many freshmen, I changed my major a few times before discovering my passion for marketing. Recently, I added a minor in Interactive Media, which has allowed me to explore website design and gain a deeper understanding of how to create effective, user-friendly digital experiences. This combination has really rounded out my skill set and enhanced my marketing foundation. I’ve also found a strong sense of community at UM through Zeta Tau Alpha. Serving on the executive board has been an incredibly rewarding experience that brought me closer to my sisters and helped me grow both personally and professionally.
Life at Home
Growing up in a big family with five siblings has taught me countless lessons that have shaped me into the person I am today. Jackie, Kurt, Ava, Julie, Elle, and even Grizzly (the cute dog on the left) have all taught me lessons that I carry with me everyday. Whether it’s learning how to compromise, communicate effectively, or simply share a bathroom with patience, life in a large household constantly challenged me to be thoughtful, resilient, and understanding. I learned early on the importance of teamwork, empathy, and showing up for the people you love, even when it’s not convenient. Family is everything to me. They are my biggest supporters, my daily inspiration, and the people who keep me grounded. Being surrounded by such a close-knit group has instilled in me a deep appreciation for connection, loyalty, and love, and those values carry into everything I do, both personally and professionally.
