Alicia Walker
I’m a Hamiltonian born and raised. I have an older sister and a younger brother whom I'm really close with. I’m a family-oriented person and find that to be a very important part of my life. I’m an outgoing and driven person and love to strive for the top in everything I do. I absolutely love writing in any form I can whether it be for a news story (radio, print, online, TV), scriptwriting, news releases, poems and songs. I like to delve into my creative side and explore all my options in that way. I love theatre and acting, it’s a huge passion of mine as well as broadcasting.
As for skills, I’ve learned skills such as media training, and crisis communications which I feel are very helpful skills to have in my line of work. I’ve learned how to make better presentations and continued to improve my writing skills with this program.
In a year from now I want to be in working in a not-for-profit organization like the Canadian Red Cross because I’d like to work for an organization that allows me to make a difference in my community. In three years from now, I see myself living in British Columbia to start my Journalistic career. Ideally, I’d like to work for a radio station and eventually have my own show and to do some deejaying on the side. In five years from now, I plan to have done some travelling, and hopefully living overseas working for a Public Relations Firm so I can do some international work.
In 10 years, from now I hope to be working in Corporate Communications for some large corporation in a management position and volunteer for not-for -profit organizations in my spare time. I’d also like to do media training on the side to help corporations and small businesses that can’t afford a Public Relations expert.
