Bio

Hello, I am your regular stressed out, dramatic hardworking teenager. I don’t really have hobbies because the public school system decided algebra was more important. I am a liberal my email is jaylahjones2@gmail.com if you want to debate. I am a feminist and activist for freedom for all. I enjoy things like reading, being with friends and talking to my boyfriend. I am a Libra and you can probably tell that by reading this bio, I am also currently hungry if you can also tell that.

I went to a CTE high school studying web design where I also got taught graphic design and decided to pursue that as my career. I enjoy art but love digital design. I’m going to go eat now thanks for reading.

Students will be required to setup and maintain at least two social media networks such as: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. The instructors for this class are there as mentors if you have not yet found an internship before registering for the course. However, the instructors do not find an internship placement for you. It is your responsibility to find a position that fits your personal career path and help you transition to full time employment upon leaving the halls of CityTech.
