The director welcomes students back from spring break and encourages graduating students to meet to discuss job opportunities. Recent events included the 25th annual Latina History Day conference where over 1,000 people networked and Bianca Hernandez found the event inspiring and motivating. Upcoming opportunities include an RTNA event on the state of the news business and millennials, internships at Casanova Pendrill, a communications assistant position at the National Hispanic Media Coalition, SPJ conferences, and Sinclair Broadcast Group scholarships.
This presentation was given to Robert Quezada of the Boy Scouts of America, Inland Empire Council. As part of a public relations management course, my team of six students was asked to respond to BSA's need for community engagement and scout troop leads. After some alterations to our campaign, we carried out the plan in the fall of 2010. A separate slideshow explains our success here: http://slidesha.re/iKUDHY.

Welcome to my portfolio! My name is Jillian Rosa Smith and I am a recent graduate of North Carolina State University. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in communication media with a minor in Spanish. I hope to use this degree to begin a career in journalism with a focus on international and cross-cultural issues.
“Words are our most inexhaustible source of magic,” is one of my favorite quotes, said by Albus Dumbledore. They are a powerful tool, able to influence perspectives on a situation, shed light on a previously unexplored issue and affect change in the world. Just as the combinations of words in Harry Potter gave the characters the ability to cast different spells, we cast our own spells with words, telling stories that inspire and amaze.
I love being a part of the storytelling process because it is a way to connect to each other and to the world around us. Whether it’s interviewing, writing, copy editing, designing a layout or proofing before print, I enjoy all aspects of the creation and distribution of news and other stories. Here I have a few examples of the work I have done with both print and digital publications over the years.

RECENT EVENTS
3. 25th Annual
Latina History
Day Conference
During ‘Woman’s History
Month’ an annual
conference is held on the
second Friday of March
to celebrate the Latina
culture and recognize the
achievements of Latinas
both historically and
presently. This
networking event is an
extraordinary opportunity
for LCs and over 1,000 other attendees. It offered the resources needed for their career
development and advice from other Latina professionals in a vast array of fields. The Hope
Conference was held at the Millennium Baltimore Hotel in Los Angeles this year. To find out more
about Latina History day click here!
“Attending the Hope conference was an unforgettable experience. I was able to learn and receive
tips and advice from professional aspiring successful Latinas. Most importantly after the
workshops I was able to speak to Alanna Rizzo the host & reporter for the Dodgers and further
receive helpful tips for my career as a reporter. I enjoyed every minute of each speaker. Especially
the fact that everyone has a unique and truly successful story. I learned so much from the event
that I am able to continue staying motivated in accomplishing my goals. The inspiration and drive
to reach my goals not only comes from within, but the positive motivational words I received at the
event. The most important advice I will take into consideration is to never give up and keep trying,
because sooner or later all the hard work and determination will be worth it in the end. I am driven
to be able to follow the foot steps of these successful Latina woman, and prove that I can make a
change in my community and society.”
