CRDM Alum Hosts Workshop for WCC Consultants

Emalee Bishop (née Shrewsbury), an alum from the M.A. in Composition, Rhetoric, and Digital Media (CRDM) program, hosted a workshop for NSU Writing and Communication Center (WCC) consultants and current CRDM students about her experiences as Marketing Manager for OZ Digital Consulting on January 31, 2023. Bishop was also a WCC Graduate Assistant Coordinator while at NSU.

Bishop’s workshop highlighted transferable skills she learned at the WCC and as an NSU student. She discussed how to leverage creativity, communication, and critical thinking in a corporate environment. She guided participants in reflecting on how to use skills they possess in their future careers.

When asked about this experience, Bishop said, “Considering life after higher education is a scary and stressful step. It certainly was for me. The time spent in this workshop was important to me because I wanted to give students who follow in my academic footsteps some tools, resources, and advice on how to think about that next step. [It] does help to have guidance from those who have come before us to help clear the debris from the path they are about to begin. I hope I could be that guide for the attendees of this workshop.”
