#S22E14 The New Year New Me Episode

It is 2016 and this new year means 366 more days to remain the same, change, or grow and its all up to me. I'll start off this new year by saying for myself I am trying to re-brand myself. I have committed to constantly updating my Linkedin accounts, getting assistance with my resume, reading more, sleeping less, and being more optimistic. 

One of the first things I've done so far for this new year new me, is get a logo made for my video productions called Grounded Media. Because I grew up in a very strict household and was usually on some type of punishment to where I couldn't watch television, talk on the phone, or use the internet (later Wifi) connection I came up with the name Grounded Media. 

I reached out to students at HBCUs who were art and digital media majors to create my logo, and it just to happen that my match made in heaven was in the same Pitt as me, a new black owned company by the name of Hayze Designs where two female students who just so happen to be Bulldogs who attend the illustrious South Carolina State University just as I am. I gave them my concept and ideas and they were able to give me various logos to chose one and I fell in love with this one.

As I've stated before this year is all about branding myself, networking, and socializing. I have also designed and printed by own personal business cards for myself so that potential employers can view what is like a "mini resume" and follow me on my social sites and view some of my work as well. Once I create a bigger brand for Grounded Media, I will create business cards for that as well.

This year has just begun and I hope to make the best out of it by being myself and showcasing what I have to offer to the world in the most positive light.
