course titled Media Sales, Advertising and Promotions. She loves the challenge of seeking potential

clients and spreading awareness of our student run newspaper. Her communication skills, time

management and patience will allow her to excel at what she does. Ashley is a go getter and truly hashat

it takes to be successful in media sales.

Aside from The Northerner, she is interning with Hamilton Digital, Cincinnati’s Xerox Distributor, this fall.

her skill set along the way to one day sell commercial air time for a TV or radio station.
