Julia Higgins

Majored in Public Relations, Minored in Public And Professional Writing
Montclair State University, Class of 2021
From Cranford, NJ

I am currently working on obtaining my degree in Public Relations and a minor in Public and Professional Writing from Montclair State University with hopes of working in social media or content developing. With my experience at managing a team for the Cranford Pool and for The School Of Communications Honors Society (LPH Zeta) I understand the importance of organizational skills and collaborative work. I also have experience in working on a VSCO page and Facebook page for a pink level chapter of a HerCampus branch (top 10%). With my experience in events, social media, and public relations, I am looking to expand my network.
