Background

About Jillian Carter

As an older sibling, I automatically acquired leadership skills early on. I worked as a Parks and Recreations Aid or Camp Councilor in Jackson, Ms the sumer of 2015. I was ahead of several activities including but not limited to teaching basic (6th grade) reading, writing, and arithmetic, and outdoor activities. I hold committee chair positions in my sorority Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and also served asVice President for the 2017 academic school year. This sorority is very business driven and among the things I have learned from being a part of it is a strong work ethic. Among these committees are Nominating committee in which I facilitate elections in the Sorority and Founders Day committee in which I facilitate programs. Not only do I know how to be a leader, but I can also act as a team player. Being a part of various Um organizations, I have learned that the group as a whole is more important than individual voices. Working behind the scenes with UM's chapter of NAACP, I have learned that team work makes the dream work. Although I am still building my professional portfolio, I have a little bit of work experience, and have now graduated from The University of Mississippi with a BBA in Marketing and Corporate Relations. I have made tremendous strides towards building my brand!
