Other Involvements: PR & Marketing Assistant for Beach Media

My Story: I like to say I didn’t choose PR, but PR chose me. When I started college, I didn’t have a clear vision of what I wanted to pursue, and I struggled finding my place as a first-generation college student. I began taking mass media classes to fulfill general education requirements, but what started as a way to check off requirements became a passion for connection through creative storytelling.
When I transferred from CSUF to CSULB, I was worried that I wouldn’t find a sense of belonging at another commuter campus. I didn’t just want to go to school for classes, I wanted community and opportunities to learn through hands-on experiences. By joining PRSSA Long Beach, I found exactly that. I met peers who quickly became friends, and bonded over shared passions and ambitions. Through PRSSA, I stepped into leadership roles, learned to trust my voice, and strengthened my confidence in my path.
PR has become more than my career; it’s how I build relationships, use my voice, and create spaces where people feel seen. What once felt uncertain has turned into purpose, and I can’t imagine myself doing anything else.
Hobbies/Interests: I love decompressing at the beach, visiting Disneyland with my friends, and going on spontaneous side quests with my sister.

Other Involvements: Creative Director of the Bateman Team
My Story: I started my college career incredibly lost, unsure of what I even wanted to get out of it. I was an environmental science major at my local community college and hated it so much that I just kept switching majors. I eventually landed on Communications and fell in love with the major. In my final semester, I had a course called Organizational Communication, and through this course I got a glimpse into the world of PR and instantly knew that was what I wanted to do. This ultimately swayed my decision to transfer to CSULB and pursue a degree in public relations. In preparation of transferring, I looked into all the clubs and organizations on campus. It was through this I learned about PRSSA and instantly knew that's what I wanted to get involved with. I made good on my word about getting involved, and since I've started at CSULB, I've been on the executive board! PRSSA and the PR program at CSULB have truly helped me find my footing and passion, and I'll always be grateful for it.
Hobbies/Interests: I have a passion for makeup, romantasy books, and video games. I love to go to the library and get a good coffee. I also love to go camping, thrifting and clubbing.

Dream Industry: Sports
Other Involvements: i9 Sports: Marketing Coordinator
Beach Media: PR & Marketing Coordinator
My Story: I grew up in a sports-loving family, so I’ve always seen how naturally sports bring people together. Some of my favorite memories are sitting around the TV during big games, talking through every play, and feeling all the highs and lows together. Even when my team loses, there’s something special about experiencing that moment with other people and bonding over it afterward.
When I realized I could build a career in the sports industry, it just felt right. I’m drawn to PR and marketing because they allow me to be creative while also connecting with people in a real way. I love the idea of telling stories, building communities, and creating experiences that make fans feel involved. Sports have always been more than just a game to me, they’re a shared experience. I want to help create that same sense of connection for others through the work I do.

Major: Public Relations
Graduation Year: Fall 2026
Dream Industry: Entertainment, Media, Crisis Communications, Legal/Public Affairs
My Story: I'm a PR major at CSULB graduating 2026 with a focus on crisis communications, entertainment, and media strategy. But honestly what brought me to this field wasn't a class or an internship. It was the fact that I've always been wired to pick up on how people communicate, what moves them, and what stories are really being told underneath the surface.
I notice things. The shift in tone, the messaging that doesn't land, the gap between what a brand says and what people actually feel. That awareness is something I've carried my whole life and PR gave it a home.
I pull inspiration from a lot of different worlds. F1, music culture, media, human behavior. All of it sharpens how I think about strategy and storytelling. I like connecting dots that don't obviously go together because that's usually where the best ideas live.
I'm direct, I'm curious, and I care about doing work that actually means something. Not just checking boxes but building something with intention behind it. That's the energy I bring to PRSSA and everything else I'm a part of.
Hobbies/Interests: F1 racing, music, music culture, astrology, cars, media production, investigations

Major: Public Relations
Graduation Year: Fall 2027
Other Involvements: On-campus student organization (Panhellenic Chapter)
My Story: I came to Long Beach from the Bay Area wanting to experience a different part of California and meet new people. I started out as a Communication Studies major but quickly realized it wasn’t exactly what I wanted. After doing further research, I realized PR was a better fit for my skills and interests, so I switched my major before starting school this year. I discovered PRSSA through my classes and knew I wanted to get involved so I could figure out my path in PR. I love being around people and making new connections, so I’m really looking forward to leading this club!
I did cheerleading in high school, which led me to join a sorority because I wanted to find that sense of community again. I’m excited to see what community I will build within PRSSA and beyond those direct connections. I am currently a second year on track to graduate early, so I want to experience everything the school has to offer, including studying abroad next year. I can’t wait to lead with this amazing team and meet a ton of new people!

Other Involvements: Communications Assistant @ ASI, Managing Editor @ el Don News, Director of Research & Writing @ PRSA Bateman Competition, Writer at Berkley Pulse, Editor & Chief - Voice of the Bay/Voz de la Bahia Magazine
My Story: I was born to be an artist, but I was also forced to be the phoenix of my family to rise above the ashes of poverty. I come from a family of multigenerational farmers in Mexico, but I was born in the United States. While I assimilate to American culture, I found solace in books. Escaping the horrors of racism, abuse and neglect, I found myself in the world of imagination that led me to write and curate my own world. As I find my grounding in books, so did the glitz and glamor of pursuing more knowledge. Today, I find myself storytelling for companies who need to humanize their marketing. My writing serves the people of the community a company is serving by listening to their stories and painting a picture to whom may ever is willing to listen. I've always been in leadership roles due to my ambitious nature to voice the elephant in the room and hopefully allow for a welcoming space to unfold. Today, here at PRSSA LB, I am the Director of Communications, telling the stories of our members, alumni and our guest speakers to foster meaningful connections.

Take risks. I look at college as kind of a social safety net. It’s the safest place to take risks. You have no idea how much you can achieve in 4-6 years, so you might as well go all out.

Major: Public Relations
Graduation Year: Spring 2026
Dream Industry: Gaming, Wine & Spirits and Automotive
Other Involvements: PR & Marketing Manager at Beach Media (Active) Engagement Director at Musical Mediation Club (Inactive)
My Story: I wear many hats, student, consultant and advisor. Across my experiences in PR, I've naturally stepped into roles that get people "unstuck." Whether it's crisis communication or campaign planning, I aim to provide the structure to a vision that hasn't fully taken form yet. I'm usually the person who helps turn ambiguity into something actionable.
My true mission is to refine dreams. Through brand consulting, I support clients with messaging, content direction, and brand alignment. Because when people aren’t overthinking what to say or how to show up, they can focus on building their dreams. But my goal isn't to make things look good, it's to make sure what's being said accurately reflects the brand.
In the future, I see myself working within an agency in the gaming and anime space, or in wine and spirits. However, I’m drawn to any space where culture and community are strong.
Hobbies/Interests: Rollerskating, video games, cosplaying anime characters

Major: Public Relations
Graduation Year: Spring 2027
Dream Industry: Cosmetics and Live Entertainment
Other Involvements: I am currently a transfer peer advisor at CSULB Outreach & School Relations and Intern at the record label, Breakaway Projects.
My Story: I wasn’t always a PR major. Last semester, fall 2025, I realized that my previous major, Business Marketing, just wasn’t suited for me. I was struggling with the math and law courses and I was feeling really discouraged because I knew I wanted to do something business related and work with amazing industry professionals in multiple fields. I always loved creative writing and doing customer service but never considered doing it professionally until I found out about public relations and realized that, that was a huge portion of what PR was. It is now my first semester taking PR classes and so far I’m loving it. I’ve met so many amazing peers so far with the help of PRSSA and can’t wait to continue to learn and grow.
Hobbies/Interests: I love to go to music festivals!

Other Involvements: Tri Delta member, GrammyU member, Headcount volunteer
My Story: Growing up in the San Fernando Valley, I was always creating, whether that meant shooting YouTube videos, acting, or simply making little crafts. That early interest in creating and performance naturally led me to film, where I found a way to shape those instincts into intentional storytelling. As a Cinematic Arts major at California State University, Long Beach, I’ve been able to explore stories centered on relationships, identity, and the kinds of emotions that often go unspoken.
Alongside film, I’ve developed a strong interest in how content connects with audiences. Pursuing a minor in public relations has helped me better understand the strategy behind storytelling and how ideas are shaped across different platforms. Through my involvement with GrammyU and HeadCount, I’ve gained insight into the music and live events industry, especially how audience engagement, community-building, and advocacy play a role in creating meaningful fan experiences.
I’ve also spent time creating content and engaging with online fan communities, which has further strengthened my interest in digital media and audience engagement. As I continue my time at CSULB, I’m excited to keep growing creatively and gaining hands-on experience in all things film and media. In the future, I hope to build a career in the entertainment industry that blends storytelling with strategy and creativity!

My Story: When I first came to college, I felt lost and unsure of what I wanted to do with my life. I explored a few different majors, but nothing truly felt like the right fit.
