Andrea Salazar has experience in marketing and is passionate about making a difference in youth’s lives. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing from the University of Alabama at Birmingham in 2008. Prior to joining ThreeSixty Journalism, she worked as a marketing production intern with the Walt Disney Company at the Walt Disney World Resort for a year.
A native-born Mexican, Andrea moved to the United States at 8 years old. This sparked an interest in learning about other cultures and the benefits of diversity. While in college, she studied abroad in Spain and China. She was excited to join ThreeSixty Journalism and be a part of a team that gives unrepresented voices a chance to be heard. She seeks to increase ThreeSixty Journalism’s profile by using her experience to reach teens, volunteers, and supporters in creative ways. “I am inspired knowing that I will be helping give teens an avenue to enrich their lives and express themselves creatively.”
Andrea’s goals as an AmeriCorps*VISTA are to continue building capacity and to set a precedent for future marketing members. Her ultimate goal is to see ThreeSixty Journalism’s mission carried out.
