With a major in Communications and a minor in business administration, Jacob Ricketts started his career in marketing at Eastern Connecticut State University. In his third year, he worked for the school’s alumni affairs as a social media intern. While he learned about social media and marketing strategies through classes, this internship gave Jacob his first hands-on experience. His time with alumni affairs would give him the drive to pursue social media marketing.
His skills in social media and graphic design would improve over time. In his fourth year, he was offered to work for the university’s business department as a social media assistant (with backing from the department chair). Jacob would accept the offer and spend the year creating social media content for the department. There, he sharpened his skills and got to experience collaborating with other creatives.
Around the spring of his last semester, Jacob got to meet the talents of the multimedia company Artist Haven Media. After some discussion and interviewing, Jacob was hired as a social media intern for the firm. For the fall season, he would further impress the company with the work he had done for them and their client. Near the end of the year, Jacob was promoted to part-time social media specialist, where he now stands, doing social media for AHM and any other of their clients. When he isn’t working on social media, Jacob is spending time drawing, exercising, and having fun with movies and video games.
