A Caspian Production: Heather Mason Bertini

Today Heather came to speak to my JCOM 2300 class and it got me so excited. I don’t know exactly what I want to do with my PR major yet, but it was so amazing to see someone talk about doing a job they so obviously love. The way she talked about her projects made me want to do anything it took to work for her. She made me think a lot about event planning and I definitely want to look more into it and see if it’s something I’m interested in pursuing.

The main message I got from her coming to speak to our class was you can do ANYTHING you really want to do. She stressed never taking no as an answer and to pursue what you wanted in any way possible. She didn’t seem like someone who got intimidated by anybody, she knows what she wants and she goes for it. This is something I really admire in a person and something I need to do myself. This semester I am trying really hard to be more aggressive, I can see it is a requirement for this competitive world.

Anyway, I know this is a random thought and rambling on about this woman but I hope someday I can come back to Utah State a talk to a class telling them what I’ve learned and hopefully they will be as inspired as I was listening to Heather Maston Bertini.
