Erin Stickney
Erin Stickney of Norwood quickly found her place as a transfer student at SUNY Canton. She selected the college’s Technological Communications Program because she loves both photography and social media.
“My favorite instructor is Associate Professor Alainya Kavaloski,” Erin said. “She has been a huge help to me as my advisor and educator. As a transfer student who commutes, it was initially difficult for me to find my place. She was so helpful, and she pushed me to use my skills to find success.”
Erin is currently on a Presidential Internship with the college’s Public Relations department. She is working on various projects including the #peoplelikeme biographies, as well as working alongside the school's photographer and videographer. She said her favorite part of working with the team is getting experience in the field she loves. Being creative and using social media as an outlet is something she is passionate about and gets to do while working in the office. “So far, I love my experience and I know I will learn so much that will help me succeed in any career path.”
After Erin graduates, she plans to get a job in either public relations, or in marketing and advertising. She hopes to one day use her knowledge and experiences to open her own photography business.
