Maria Del Carmen Huerta
My name is Maria del Carmen Huerta I am a diligent, curious and adventurous junior at San Diego State University majoring in journalism with an emphasis in public relations minor in marketing. As a native of Southern California I am familiar with San Diego's great hospitality and tourism. After graduation I plan to pursue a career in the lifestyle and hospitality public relations industry before going to graduate school.
My greatest assets are my can-do attitude and involvement on and off campus.This year I have begun to focus on startups and entrepreneurship. As a member of the prestigious Lavin Entrepreneurship Program at SDSU I plan to master business skills that will assist me toward my goal of fusing two of my greatest passions: hospitality and entrepreneurship.
I plan to one day establish a public relations agency of my own here in San Diego as well as give back to the community. Currently, I am seeking an internship that will challenge me and help me hone my skills in social media, writing and business communications.
