My name is Hanna Kim. This is my third year at Temple University but just transferred to SCT for the BTMM program from Fox School of Business. I was studying IBA and Marketing and realized it wasn't the correct way for my career and I ended up at SCT. During my high school years, I majored in vocal arts and my love for music never seemed to go away. Because I'm a first generation Korean American college student,  the expectations of my family were very high, which was the reason why I majored in IBA-Marketing. As time went on, my interest for performance, exposure, and most importantly music only increased. And my love for exposure, performing has led me to pick a career path in which fits with reality. I am currently studying BTMM and plan to minor in Journalism as well, having the interest of becoming a reporter and maybe one day, an anchor. But my ultimate goal is to keeping in touch with music with the background, BTMM.

Mass communication is information communicated to the public whether it is the news, magazines, radio, tv, or film.  I once heard that information both forms and informs our lives, especially in the information and digital world that we live in today. Mass communication and media is an extention of our abilities to learn something new and put more and more information in our brains. The information we get from mass communication helps shape my identity, beliefs, life and plants an ambition to build my career in getting information out to people and to be a part of mass communication.

I expect to grow in knowledge and interest of mass communication and its theories in depth through this class. Therefore absorbing more information on mass communication and its theories. And for the C-Team, I will be able to offer advice, participation, opinion, and maybe even research. Depending on what needs to be done, I will contribute in every way possible to get needs met. I must say I don't have much experience in this field yet so whatever I can find out to help out in anyway, we've gotta get it done!
