February 25, 2016, was the start of my position with Odyssey. I joined on a whim and it's safe to say that it was totally worth it. My time here with Odyssey has been a blessing. I have made so many friends and have created so many great articles that have gotten so many positive comments and activity! This position is a learning opportunity. You learn a lot about your talents and skills but also a lot about yourself.Thank you Odyssey for giving me one of the best years of my life! I look forward to more great years of creating to come!
Creating articles and being able to share them with those around me is such a rewarding process. Seeing my family members and friends share my work gives me a sense of pride but also is so humbling. When I first began writing for Odyssey, I was not sure I was capable of maintaining such a challenging position. But my teammates and staff have made this process so easy for me.
To my editor in chief, Meghan, thank you for answering all of my phone calls when I don't know how to format or when my social share button malfunctions. I swear you are Super Woman. You are my go to girl and have the answers for everything (and if you don't, you find them). You have quickly become one of my closest friends and our friendship is something I will cherish forever.
To my co-editors, thank you for being so helpful and understanding. If I'm struggling to get homework done you always cover my back with editing and you are always there for support.
To my writers, you all are so intelligent and inspirational. Your weekly content is astounding and you all blow me away with the many talents you all show throughout your articles. Keep creating and keep believing because you will go far in life!
To Odyssey, thank you for giving me not only a good start to my writing career but for giving me a home. Odyssey is more than a social content platform. It is a place to escape and let yourself free. Writing is my therapy and Odyssey allows me to share my life with the world and for that, I will forever be grateful.
