My name is Erica and I am in the Online Teaching Program at Wayne State. This is my first semester here and I'm definitely looking forward to my experience. I am currently a Social Media Marketing Intern for Empeopled, a social networking startup based out of Chicago. My hobbies include writing fiction (a little bit), screenplays and plays (a lot of those), and poetry (somewhat.) My family is just my immediate family of my brother and my parents, but I have a huge extended family. I am also a huge sports lover, as well as an active athlete. I love tennis, hockey, volleyball, basketball, and lacrosse. Honestly, I love too many sports to mention, but I have played everyone of the previously mentioned sports at some point. My love of hockey recently had me venture out to the Hockeytown Winter Festival events, as well as the Winter Classic as Michigan Stadium.
I am in this course because of the online teaching program. Although no one knows everything about social networking and I am familiar with some social networking sites, I am not familiar with everything and I definitely wish to learn something new, especially because of my internship and my role with Empeopled. (and I really didn't have a Google + account until now). I look forward to being in the course and interacting with my new classmates at Wayne.
Hi Erica. I was also at the Winter Classic in Ann Arbor. I don't believe that I have ever been colder in my life. It was a great experience, though.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great experience. Super cold. Can't believe they ran out of hot chocolate!
DeleteI was at the Alumni games and Winter Classic as well! I can't believe I sat in 13* weather for two days. I'm glad I did it because it was a wonderful experience!!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to go to the Alumni games, but I went to the rest of the games and needed the break, honestly. It was a fun time.
DeleteHello Erica (Great name) How are you?? I really enjoyed reading your information. You have a really exciting life and I am looking forward to talking with you more this semester. Erika Guilford
ReplyDeleteI'm doing well. I really look forward to talking with you as well. You have a great name too!
DeleteWelcome to WSU!! I am finally finishing up my classes, but I have loved my experiences here! It sounds like you have a great background for this class:)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm definitely hoping to learn something new. I'm enjoying my time here so far.

Hey Andrea,
DeleteSports are definitely an addiction. I look forward to being in this class and hearing from you as well.
Hey Erika, seem to be a very busy lady, I love sports too, but not competitive, more exercising. You appear to have a lot of interests with your writing, and so on. I also would like to certify in online teaching and look forward to this class and working and sharing with you. Thanks for sharing, rdavenport
ReplyDeleteHey Regina,
DeleteI am busy, but I love it. I am looking forward to being in class with you.

ReplyDeleteVery nice to meet you. Social networking is so incredibly powerful and this must be an exciting field to work in. I look forward to reading your writing!

Hi Sue,
DeleteIt is an exciting field. I really look forward to reading yours as well.
I went to both UM/MSU outdoor games last decade (man, I feel old saying that), one at MSU and one at UM. It's good to see another person with a unique perspective (i.e., outside K-12). Welcome.
ReplyDeleteThanks! That must have been amazing to go to those games. I also went to the Chicago/Detroit one a couple years back at Wrigley but it wasn't nearly as cold.
DeleteHello Erica and welcome to Wayne State. I did my first master here and I am working on my second which I will be switching over to a PhD in CTE administration soon. I have liked Wayne State and have enjoyed my classes here as I feel you will.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jerry. I hope I will enjoy my classes. I am enjoying them so far.
