Writing a Bio

INSTRUCTIONS:

Compose a 200-300 word bio and post it to this forum.  Begin it with an interesting, descriptive headline for yourself (similar to your LinkedIn* headline, if you have one). This is an opportunity to not only "meet" your instructor and classmates, but also to begin networking, a key business skill.  Introduce yourself like you might in a LinkedIn summary or at a meet-and-greet.  Here are some possible prompts: What are your past and current successes? What do you value most and how will that contribute to your career? What are your plans for the future? What skills do you have that make you stand out in a crowd? Do you have a favorite quote? What does it say about you? Can you tell us a story about how you got here? Try to open with an interesting and compelling start so your readers will want to read more.  Use details instead of generalities (Instead of "I am active", write "I have run five marathons"). Write base on Econ Major, volunteer animal shelter experience, love group work because there'll be different perspectives etc.
