My name is Margaret Padilla, and I'm studying Professional Writing for New Media, with a minor in Literature, at Grand Canyon University. Writing professionally for an outlet such as this has always been my dream, and I'm excited to bring my writing and storytelling skills to this team.
When I graduate, I'm hoping to find a job with a non-profit organization that allows me to write what I'm passionate about. I would like to pursue a career in either copywriting, public relations, or grant writing.
I live back up in Medford, Oregon with my parents, younger brother, and dog Grady. I love mountains, lakes, and going on long drives through the woods. In my spare time, I like to crochet, play piano, draw (I'm not very good), hang out with friends, go on long walks, and dream up ideas for my own future novels or short stories.
My faith in Jesus is also very important to me. I want to honor God in all I do and say, whether I'm writing a school paper, designing a poster for class, or just struggling to get through my hectic week. I hope the things I share and write about will be an encouragement to all potential readers, whether they share my views or not.
