Welcome!
My name is Taylor Aufill and I recently graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a Bachelor of Arts degree. I specialized in English with an emphasis on Rhetoric & Professional Writing. This broad subject area allowed me to work closely with writing and editing, as well as web design and social media marketing. Some of my personal areas of interest include working with and being around animals, creative writing, photography, and being outdoors. Much of my creative inspiration comes from the life that I live, constantly exploring and developing who I am as an individual. My journey didn't begin at the University of Cincinnati, nor did I originally start out as a Professional Writing major. As of the fall of 2018, I am a transfer student from The Ohio State University, where I spent much of my time studying animal sciences, the fine arts, and playing ultimate frisbee. While Ohio State had felt like home to me for so many years, it eventually came to a time where my academic interests no longer fit into the design that the university had to offer me. After doing some research, I came to find that the University of Cincinnati offered a major program entitled "Rhetoric and Professional Writing," in which I would be able to pursue one of my other true loves: the art of writing! In the future, I would love to be able to incorporate a use for my love for design, digital media, and writing together as one! Throughout my time as a Rhetoric and Professional Writing major, I acquired a variety of new skills that I had no idea I would end up being so passionate about. Many of my courses focused on the benefit of social media and the influence that it has in marketing a business or individual. Through this, I gained a love for designing web pages, social media and content creation, and all of the tools that are used to produce a successful marketing platform. As you'll discover through my e-portfolio, I have a passion and pride in many different subject areas. |
