Introduction

Hi there! I'm Samantha Stevens, and I am a third year Human Ecology student majoring in Textiles and Clothing and minoring in Interiors. I would like to be an interior designer after graduating. Communication will be very important in my career because I will have to clearly get ideas across to clients and also be able to understand their wants/needs.

I currently use Facebook as my main form of communication. I rely on it to get updates from friends and family that I see everyday or ones that live on the other side of the world. I enjoy viewing and posting photos, statuses, and links. Besides Facebook I have recently joined Twitter for ALES 204 and actually find it to be a fun and faster way of communicating.

I think communication is vital in today's society. It helps people stay up-to-date with current affairs, family/friend matters, and also helps with many professions. When it comes to the interior design profession, communication lets designers and consumers know what current trends are, bridges the gap between a designer and a client, and even helps consumers do their own interior design projects. Overall, communication is important in sharing knowledge in various aspects of life.

Here are some interior design blogs that I enjoy:

Lastly, here is my friend Angela's ALES 204 blog who is in the Human Ecology Family Studies program: http://ales204humanecologystudent.blogspot.com/

Thanks for reading my introduction! I look forward to creating more blog posts and sharing my thoughts on communication/social media.
