Hi, I'm Brandy Ruiz
I graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso with a Bachelor's degree in multimedia journalism with a minor in political science and marketing. As a multimedia journalist, I've done everything from writing to video production. But, I'm always looking to try new things and expand my skillset. I'm actively looking for work in the field of audience engagement or social media production!Though I'm based in El Paso, TX I'm willing to move as needed.Below are examples of some of my best work.
