Hi, I'm Jamie Ko, a passionate Sociology student at UCLA with a strong interest in marketing, social justice journalism, and creative entrepreneurship. I have hands-on experience creating engaging social media content and strategic marketing campaigns as part of The Women’s Network, and I’m currently honing my journalistic skills through a social justice internship. I've also cultivated a small business, designing and selling handmade jewelry and accessories through my Etsy and Depop shops, which taught me the importance of customer relationships and digital marketing. I'm eager to bring my creativity, research abilities, and strategic thinking to new opportunities where I can make a meaningful impact.
