Adrienne's Story
Life
After High School, I went to three or four different colleges before finding my fit at Portland State University. Around the same time, I worked in the radio field for a year as a Promotions Coordinator. I eventually decided to move to Orlando, where I got a job in a music management company, as well as Universal Orlando. After getting my Master's, I was asked to stay as a full-time instructor at the University of Central Florida, where I am now working teaching public speaking to college kids.
School
I began my school career at Grout Elementary School, in Portland, OR. I went on from there to Lot Whitcomb Elementary, McLoughlin Junior High, then graduated from Clackamas High School in 1998.
College
I graduated from Clackamas, and went immediately on to Western Oregon University. I went there 5 terms, and hated it, so spent my 6th term of college at Chemeketa Community College.

After moving to Orlando, I was accepted to graduate school and graduated in December of 2006 with an M.A. in Mass Media Communications. Now that I am teaching at UCF full time, I decided I'd like to get more of a background in education, so I am pursuing my second masters in Education.
Workplace
I've had many jobs over the years, but I held a position as a promotions coordinator for 7 large radio stations in the Portland area while I was completing my Bachelor's Degree. After school, I worked with Radio Disney for a few months, then made the move to Orlando. I almost immediately got a job with Wright Entertainment Group, as well as Universal Orlando.
After I went back to grad school, I received a teaching assistanceship and quit my other jobs to teach and go to school full time. After my graduation in December of 2006, UCF asked me to stay on as a full-time Interpersonal/Organizational Communication instructor -- I am currently teaching speech to college kids full time.
