Greetings,
My name is Makenzie Cann. I graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2018 with a degree in Integrated Strategic Communications and a path in Public Relations. I am currently finishing up my Masters in Business Administration and Non Profit at Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida. I played division one basketball at the University of Kentucky, while pursuing my education. I have heavy social media and Marketing background as well as internship experience. I am looking and excited to finally expanding my career. I have loved using my own brand as an athlete to collaborate with companies and create content, but I am missing out on a one company aspect, plus learning from other great organizations. I am confident I have a lot to offer with my athletic experience as well as Marketing experience. I look forward to hopefully hearing from you soon. Thank you so much.
