Summary
My name is Dane Michael Crouser, I am currently 21 years old and I am walking a road of recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. For as long as I can remember, I have been drawn to the digital space wether that be websites, social media, blogging or video blogging. I understand what I have the personal capacity to control as well as what I cannot. This means that I work diligently to change what I am able to whilst not letting what I cannot hinder me in other areas of life. I am a hardworking individual who takes initiative, is extremely resourceful and someone who is not afraid to ask for help or to take responsibility for my actions. Being a millennial, I am very in touch with current digital trends and technologies, keeping my digital finger on the pulse regarding changes in platform or practice. I am an aspiring and creative copywriter with a passion for creating as well as marketing within the digital space. I am an enthusiastic student currently pursuing either a digital marketing or brand communications degree. Excited to learn from high-performing and successful team. Possess excellent communication, problem solving and teamwork abilities.
